Feasibility was defined as the CHA's ability to properly apply the motivational interview. Results: the CHA were all women, working in the area for an average of 7 years. Almost all CHA were able to learn and apply the motivational interview to support patients with diabetes improve the self-care and the provision of routine services in their monthly home visits, and patients really liked the intervention, reporting an improvement in their relationship with the CHA.
