Abstract

Objective: To strengthen health promotion actions, self-care for Type 2 Diabetes (T2D), and communication among members of homoparental families. Background: Homoparental families, representing 0.6% of all households in Mexico, face unique challenges. These families play crucial roles in providing emotional and material support, transmitting cultural values, and fostering socialization and personal identity. Methodology: This study was conducted in Puebla, Mexico, from November to December 2023. The Nursing Process (PAE) was applied through eight home visits using the Calgary Model, which assesses family structure, development, and functionality. Tools used included the Family APGAR, Illness Perception Questionnaire, and lifestyle evaluations, along with genograms and ecomaps. Interventions: Interventions included personalized educational sessions, workshops on insulin administration, and nutritional counseling. The focus was on setting realistic health goals and providing ongoing support. Results: Initial evaluations showed a Family APGAR score indicating dysfunction, a positive illness perception score, and a regular lifestyle score. Post-intervention results demonstrated improvements in lifestyle scores and better T2D self-care practices, highlighting the effectiveness of the PAE and the Calgary Model in improving family functionality and health outcomes.
