Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
The intervention includes brief physical activity (PA) counseling delivered via phone by a PA Counselor trained in relevant aspects of PA and motivational interviewing. During the initial call, the PA counselor will assess readiness for change in PA and will utilize appropriate PA counseling components to assess participant's PA preferences/needs, as well as referral to PA resources and goal setting. Approximately two weeks after the initial call, the PA counselor will contact participants to check in on whether they have successfully connected with PA programs or resources discussed, review progress toward PA goals and set new goals. Participants will be provided with linkage to PA programs and resources to include: self-directed, group classes/community, physical therapy and other clinical/supervised programs. Three months after the initial call, the PA counselor will call participants to assess PA and stage of change using appropriate PA counseling components and goal setting.
