Summary

This research study is testing the feasibility and acceptability of a 12-week intervention that integrates telephone coaching and printed materials about the ACS guidelines and healthy lifestyle behaviors in order to manage symptoms after treatment for cancer. We will recruit 57 dyads (the survivor plus one identified informal caregiver) from the community.

BEHAVIORAL

Symptom Assessment and Health Coaching

The intervention condition will involve weekly symptom assessment and health coaching to manage symptoms and to meet the ACS cancer prevention guidelines provided over the telephone by trained health coaches. Participants will be completing the same forms/assessments throughout the study. The content will be built around the Symptom Management Toolkit. The coaching will be dictated by the symptoms the survivor or the support person is experiencing the week of the intervention call. All calls begin with the symptom assessments, only the intervention arm includes intervention coaching that focuses on physical activity, stress management, or eating a healthy diet to improve adherence to the ACS guidelines for cancer prevention. We anticipate coaching sessions will last approximately 20 - 45 minutes.
