1.6; 4.8 | — |
Summary
Using a pilot 1-arm pre-post design, investigators will implement an intervention that is personalized, low burden (the majority of interactions are telephone coaching sessions), and delivered during the initial survivorship transition.
To determine the feasibility of the intervention 48 community-dwelling rural breast cancer survivors (BCS) (ages 40 and older) will receive the intervention. The 12-week intervention consists of three home-based face-to-face consultations with the therapist, 9 weekly habit tele phone coaching sessions, and the use of implementation intentions, environmental modifications, and tailored text messages to support physical activity and dietary habit formation and address unmet needs.
