JR lives with type 2 diabetes and works 10-11 hours a day driving a tractor for a local farm. It is difficult for JR to make medical appointments since their employer has very strict attendance guidelines. JR has ingrown toenails in the big toes, that cause a great deal of pain. Since they didn’t have time to come in for care, JR cut off half of their toenails on both feet to prevent an ingrown nail. As you inspect JR’s feet, you see that their big toes are swollen and red. You ask the provider to evaluate JR’s feet because you are worried. After the provider evaluates JR’s feet, they turn to JR and say, “Diabetics should never cut their toenails like this. It causes infection”.

- Effective cultural humility coupled with compliance model.
- Avoidance of the adherence model and promotion of transtheoretical approach.
- Adult learning theory disruption coupled with interpersonal shaming.
- Unawareness of language and the impact of social determinants of health.
