May 29, 2019 updated by: Donna Marvicsin, William Beaumont Hospitals

Family Routine - Healthy Families

The purpose of the proposed study, Family Routines - Healthy Families, is to examine the feasibility and acceptability of a parenting/family routine intervention program for parents of young children, ages 2-5, with type 1 diabetes.

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

The intervention in Family Routines - Healthy Families contains an established and effective parent skills training curriculum called "The Incredible Years," uniquely integrated with a newly developed family evening routine component e.g., family dinner time and evening routine, to promote improved metabolic control. The investigator will assess outcomes during and at one week post intervention. Outcome measures will include family routine, specifically the time between the dinner and bedtime glucose check, parent bedtime decision making, and child overnight glucose control. In addition, parental quality of life and receptiveness to the intervention will be assessed.
