| Abstract | Today, self-care is referred to as a fundamental and irreplaceable principle for achieving optimal health outcomes. Undoubtedly, developing and implementing targeted and effective education programs is necessary to achieve adequate self-care in society concerning various diseases. Judging the effectiveness of health education and promotion programs is impossible without effective evaluation mechanisms that can measure the achievements at the levels of knowledge, attitudes, skills, and behavior with the desired accuracy and objectivity. Recently, a national program entitled "Each Home as a Health Post" (HAHP) was launched in Iran to improve the self-care capability among community members in high priority health issues. Hence, it is essential to establish a comprehensive and ongoing evaluation mechanism for the program, as well as to implement corrective and promotional interventions based on the evaluation results. Accordingly, this Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practice (KAP) survey aimed to assess the impact of HAHP program on self-care among the community in the form of a study protocol. | en |
