Summary

This study, Re-thinking the role of Peers And Training Patients \[RePeAT\], is designed to test the feasibility of training peer-coaches to prepare limited health literacy (LHL) patients to engage in shared-decision making (SDM) for cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk-reduction.

Detailed description

The investigators will use a 2-arm pilot RCT design to assess the feasibility, and acceptability of the intervention. Up to 60 primary care patients will be randomly assigned to participate in the peer-coaching or control group. Patients will be randomized at a 1:1 ratio, stratified by the clinician. Half of the subjects (n=30) will be assigned to the peer-coaching intervention, and the other half will be assigned to the control group.
