  10. Evaluation • Upon arrival, the members of the senior center told us that the majority of the people present already had type 2 diabetes • Seemed irritated that we were interrupting their Bingo game • “I’m not going to learn anything I don’t already know.” • Based on the feedback received by participants: • Processed knowledge and asked intelligent questions • Provided real-life situations

  11. Future Recommendations • Because the main meal the seniors eat is provided by the Senior Center through the government, we would suggest taking this factor into account when planning future interventions • Because of the overall age of our audience, a program could be planned to increase exercise and an active lifestyle for seniors. • These seniors could also benefit from knowledge about different disease processes
