interactive group education, navigation services and engagement of health care providers for referrals, and linkage to care.
The interactive group education was aimed to increase participant overall understanding of CRC, screening methods, and utilization of available resources such as home test kit and navigation services, with the ultimate goal of increasing screening rates. Clinical partners provided clinical support and ensured successful screening assessment and follow-ups by offering more flexible hours of clinic operation with bilingual medical staff on site. Patient navigation assistance was also offered based on participants' needs. The range of assistance included scheduling appointments with clinical partners for sigmoidoscopy/colonoscopy for screening and diagnosis after a FIT positive result, assisting paper.
general health education
Receive a group education session focused on general health education and primary prevention issues.
Education Session on General Health
Participants in the control group received a group education session in a similar format with that of the intervention group delivered by trained Korean community health educators. Different from the intervention group, the education focused on general health education and primary prevention issues, including routine health examinations and screening for various diseases such as cancer. Korean version of work and communication with a physician, and arranging transportation. standard printed materials and guidelines related to the education contents were also provided, including CRC screening guidelines.
