The role of religious leaders in health promotion for older Mexicans with diabetes.
This study explored the views of ten male Mexican religious leaders about their understanding of their role in diabetes health promotion. The author found that the major themes from the qualitative interviews emphasized the importance of open communication between church leaders and their parishioners, the role of the church in diabetes programs, and the unique position of religious institutions as a link between physical and spiritual aspects of health.
