Description:
This study evaluates the impact of training on providers' confidence about using the MinuteClinic (MC) hypertension (HTN) guideline to conduct HTN management visits in MC. MC providers who participated or did not participate in the training/webex education session provided prior to the commencement of HTN chronic care services were surveyed and their confidence scores measured. T-test analysis did not show any statistically significant difference between the Trained group and the Non-Trained group. Factors enabling the lack of significant difference between the two groups and suggestions for further studies are discussed.
