Happy 100th day of 2026!

On day 100, we know that the smartest thing you can do when facing illness is find people who've walked the path before you.

What's one thing #SmartPatients has taught you?

🤝 The most sustainable way to help people isn't to keep showing up and doing it for them — it's to train them until they can do it themselves, and then do it for others. Dr.

Peer Mentor Training and Supervision for a #Digital Adolescent #depression Treatment in South Africa and Uganda: Mixed Methods Evaluation Background: Blended #Digital #MentalHealth interventions combining technology with human support are more effective than stand-alone treatments. However, limited research has examined how to train and supervise personnel delivering human support components. The Kuamsha #App, a gamified #Digital intervention for adolescent #depression based on behavioral activation, was designed to be paired with low-intensity telephone-based peer support. A structured training and supervision program for peer supporters was codeveloped through workshops with #MentalHealth professionals and youth with lived experience of #MentalHealth challenges in South Africa and Uganda. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to evaluate a structured peer mentor model within a #Digital #MentalHealth intervention in low- and middle-income countries. Objective: This study assessed the feasibility, acceptability, and fidelity of a training and supervision program for peer supporters delivering a #Digital #MentalHealth intervention in South Africa and Uganda. Methods: We conducted a mixed methods evaluation of the peer mentor program. Quantitative metrics assessed the feasibility of recruitment, retention, and attendance among peer mentors (n=13, South Africa; n=4, Uganda), as well as training acceptability. Fidelity, adherence, and competence were scored at the session level and converted to percentages of the maximum possible score. Linear mixed-effects regression models with a random intercept for provider and site estimated adjusted marginal means (95% CI). In-depth interviews and focus group discussions explored program acceptability and implementation factors. Results: The peer mentor training and supervision program was feasible and acceptable in both settings, with high recruitment (South Africa: n=13/19, 68%; Uganda: 4/4, 100%), retention (South Africa: 9/13, 69%; Uganda: 4/4, 100%), and training attendance rates (89%‐92% in South Africa and 100% in Uganda), alongside qualitative reports of high satisfaction. All peer mentors met a minimum posttraining competency threshold (≥50%), with median competency scores of 70.7% (IQR 45.8%‐78.2%) in South Africa and 75.4% (IQR 73.8%‐77.3%) in Uganda. Independent ratings of recorded calls indicated high overall fidelity in South Africa (84.7%, 95% CI 80.3%‐89.0%) and Uganda (87.7%, 95% CI 83.4%‐92.1%). Adherence was higher in Uganda than South Africa (adjusted mean difference [AMD] 13.30 percentage points, 95% CI 8.99‐17.61;

A four-panel comic showing a chick watering a cactus. A penguin says the cactus doesn't need much water, but the chick responds that they should still ask their low-maintenance friends if they are okay.

We should still ask our low maintenance friends if they’re okay!
