Results

A significant difference (p < 0.001) was observed in the Attitudes Toward Health Care Teams Scale (ATHCTS) scores between pre- and post-test in the intervention (6.3, 8.3 [Mean, SD]) and control groups (0.7, 8.2). Multivariate linear regression analysis showed an independent positive association between the intervention and greater improvement in the ATHCTS score (p = 0.03) at follow-up, after adjustment for age, years in current occupation, and social support role of participants.

Baseline Characteristics

A total of 81 CHWs responded to the ATHCTS, RIPLS, and CAES at baseline. Of the 81 CHWs, 42 belonged to the intervention group, while 39 were in the control group. Data for six participants were excluded (intervention, n = 5; control, n = 1), as there was no response during the follow-up survey. Thus, the final set of data used in the analysis included 75 CHWs (intervention, n = 37; control, n = 38), with a response rate of 92.6%.

Participant flow

A randomized controlled trial was adopted dividing participants into an intervention (n = 42) and a control group (n = 39).

Adverse events

None

Outcome measures

Attitudes toward, and readiness and activities for collaboration were measured using three standardized scales before and at 6 months after the training.
