Components
Education (E)
Peers (P)
Peers (P)
The intervention is carried out by peers, people who have experienced living with the same disease or by lay people living in your community. Rather than involving just health professionals or educators, the intervention involves one or more peers who take on a role in the teaching and/or providing information about the intervention.
Examples: Training and teaching activities provided by peers to guide people with a related health care concern, to adopt a new behaviour that would facilitate healthy outcomes.
In group
Two or more patients or caregivers receive a self-management intervention. Group interventions are normally organized for efficiency purposes or to facilitate learning and knowledge exchange among peers (people living with the same health condition). For example, peer-led education group to enhance physical activity in obese individuals.
Face-to-face
Self-management support delivered in a face-to-face encounter between the providers and patients and/or caregivers.

Education (E)
Education (E)
Sharing information. This form of support consists in sharing of information about self-management topics like coping with symptoms, diet, exercise, medication, information about what other people are doing, and information about the disease itself, or about any other relevant aspects that could lead to improved self-management, and ultimately better health. This information can be told or distributed in printed materials like a folder or workbook, or via website or DVD.
Examples: Educational session on healthy eating for people with obesity, provision of a printed leaflet on the importance of foot care in diabetes, or a link to a website with information on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease care.
