SUMMARY

One of the most common problems in people with diabetes (DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) is the high frequency of other coinciding medical conditions such as osteoporosis and frailty. Frailty in particular is very common in adults with DM and CKD and it can result in significant muscle weakness which can result in increasing difficulties with performing activities of daily life (ADL). This can lead to an increase risk for falls, bone fractures and increasing hospitalization. The investigators have showed that adults with DM and CKD who have frailty use hospital services more frequently, have reduced quality of life and difficulties with performing their ADLs1. There is some evidence that early screening for frailty and lifestyle interventions that focus on healthier eating and physical activity can help prevent frailty from getting worse. The study purpose is to develop and test a home-based lifestyle intervention program focused on optimizing diet and the ability to perform your ADLs in adults with DM and CKD. The goal of this program is to ensure that adults with DM can live healthier lives within the community.
