Home health aides get heart help from fellow workers
NCT ID NCT07067398
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a 10-week program to improve heart health in home health aides, who often have poor cardiovascular health. Participants work with a trained peer coach (another home health aide) to learn healthy habits and positive thinking. The program is based on the American Heart Association's Life's Essential 8 guidelines. The study will see if the program is liked and if it actually improves heart health measures like blood pressure and cholesterol.
