iConcern is a web-based tool designed to identify and address the immediate concerns of adults newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. By capturing these concerns early, iConcern supports person-centered, timely, and effective diabetes care.
For many adults newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, the first year can feel overwhelming. Concerns about treatment, lifestyle changes, and emotional wellbeing often go unheard. iConcern helps bring these concerns forward early, giving individuals a stronger voice in their care and helping providers respond with greater empathy and precision.
Who's Involved
Adults diagnosed with type 2 diabetes within the past six months
Experts in diabetes care, education, communication, and endocrinology
Dr. Michelle Boakye and the Stampley Research Group
Why It Matters
Addressing immediate concerns improves communication, patient satisfaction, treatment adherence, and may reduce long-term distress. iConcern fills a critical gap by giving patients a voice at a vulnerable moment following diagnosis.
iConcern Study is sponsored by the Association of Diabetes Care & Education Specialists
