Research Focus
Dr. Reid’s dissertation is titled “The Effect of Perceived Coaching on Metabolic Control and Weight Loss in Persons with Type 2 Diabetes and Obesity”, and she created and tested the Perceived Coaching Scale (PCS), a 16-item measure of the patient’s perception of their provider as an effective coach (internal reliability 0.98). Dr. Reid served as an investigator on an interdisciplinary research team conducting a 4 and half year, multisite, randomized controlled trial of a lifestyle case management intervention for people with type 2 diabetes and obesity. She most recently served as the APRN/Case Manager for Dr. Sharon Utz and Dr. Ishan Williams’ NIH-funded study of a culturally-tailored diabetes self-management program targeted specifically for African Americans who live in a rural area. Dr. Reid continues her research through mentoring doctoral students through their own research endeavors, many of which center on teaching and coaching individuals with chronic health conditions such as diabetes, obesity, and heart disease. Dr. Reid also serves as the Research Coordinator for a local community hospital, where she coaches and mentors nurses in their clinical research and evidence-based practice pursuits.Clinical Focus
With Dr. Reid’s early clinical career in an intensive care unit for general surgery, TCV surgery, neurosurgery, and trauma patients, her first master’s degree concentrated in critical care. In 1989, she assumed a leadership role in helping to open a new TCV-ICU while also holding a joint appointment with the School of Nursing. In 1992, Dr. Reid changed practice environments to a level I trauma emergency department and joined a team to lead the opening of an emergency chest pain evaluation center. By entering into ambulatory care and subsequently discovering the importance of primary care, Dr. Reid went on to obtain a post-master’s Family Nurse Practitioner certificate. Dr. Reid maintains clinical practice with MedExpress, a local urgent care facility, as well as with Passport Health, a nationwide travel health consultation service for individuals and families preparing for international travel.Publications
