Web-Based Health Coaching for Spinal Cord Injury: Results From a Mixed Methods Feasibility Evaluation

This study evaluates a web-based self-management program called SCI & U for Canadians with spinal cord injury (SCI). The program provides trained peer health coaches to guide participants through health topics. The study used a mixed-methods approach, gathering both quantitative data (surveys) and qualitative data (interviews) to assess the program's feasibility and potential impact. The results showed that the web-based program is feasible and acceptable for individuals with SCI, potentially improving self-efficacy, mood, resilience, and secondary complications.
