Web-based Program to Improve Self-management Among Veterans-caregiver Dyads

web-SUCCEED (Web-based Self-management Using Collaborative Coping EnhancEment in Diseases), a theoretically-derived, dyadic, self-management program.20,21 Web-SUCCEED is designed to improve self-management by improving dyadic stress coping and strengthening collaboration and communication.21 Web-SUCCEED comprises: 1) a three-module, self-paced behavioral intervention that Veterans and caregivers complete individually (one audio/video module per week) on the web-SUCCEED website; 2) brief, staff-led telephone calls in which dyads participate simultaneously after each module; and 3) peer support via a study-specific discussion board. Dyads learn and practice cognitive behavioral skills to reduce individual and relationship stress; improve positive emotions; improve communication and collaboration; increase pleasant activities; and maintain behavior change.
