PEERS aims to test a peer-supervision mobile application and understand the impact of this on the quality of therapy delivered by non-specialist community healthcare workers, and finally impact of improved therapy quality on patient outcomes.
Supervision is particularly relevant for treatments delivered by non-specialist workers. However, the reliance on mental health specialists to supervise them in-person is not scalable because specialists are not readily available and existing in-person methods are expensive, time-intensive and lack generalizable metrics. This project generates new knowledge on digital peer supervision of NSP to deliver evidence-based psychological care to people with depression.
This Implementation Research project generates new knowledge on digital peer supervision of NSP to deliver evidence-based psychological care to people with depression. The project findings would enable policymakers, researchers and implementers of similar settings to adapt the intervention to supervise the work of NSPs for quality delivery of depression care and other health care services.
