Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

EIRA intervention

Individual intervention has an average intensity between 2 and 3 visits; if necessary, professionals have the freedom to make a greater number of visits. Group intervention is carried out through health education workshops. These workshops take place 15-20 days after initiating the individual intervention and they are conducted by primary care providers in the health center. A group of 12-15 people attend in each workshop. Community intervention focuses mainly on the social prescription of resources and activities that are carried out in the community where the participant person resides. In addition the intervention has the support of information and communication technologies, such as a web addressed to the participant, a mobile app or the sending personalized text messages.
