According to population size and based on Cochran formula, 45 Bahvarzes were randomly selected from khaf and Sarakh health centers as the statistical sample. The intervention of face-to-face training in Sarakhs health center and intervention of distance education in Khaf Health Center were used. Data was analyzed through SPSS 24 software.
Results: Based on the results of paired t-test, it was found that face to face training intervention was effective on self-care of non-communicable diseases in Behvarz of Sarakhs city (p-value = 0.001). But self-care distance education intervention has not been effective on self-care of non-communicable diseases in Behvarz of khaf city (p-value=0.1).
