In 2022 we awarded a Health Equity grant to a collaborative project team from the University of Arizona, USC, and Casa Colina Hospital. This project is addressing the increased risk of diabetic foot wounds and leg amputations among patients with peripheral artery disease from low-income neighborhoods. The team is piloting a patient-centered peer support approach to teach low-income vascular patients, who commonly experience emotional distress, coping strategies and ways to navigate the healthcare system.
