Abstract

Healthcare peer support programs have gained recognition as effective interventions for individuals with chronic conditions. This review article aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the effectiveness of such programs in improving health outcomes and quality of life for patients with chronic conditions. The review synthesizes findings from various studies and evaluates the impact of peer support on disease management, emotional well-being, and self-care behaviors. Additionally, the review explores the mechanisms through which peer support programs operate and examines the factors influencing their success. By critically analyzing existing literature, this review sheds light on the potential benefits and limitations of healthcare peer support programs for chronic conditions. The implications for healthcare providers, policymakers, and patients are discussed, along with recommendations for future research in this area.
