Methods: An observational and descriptive research was carried out in a universe of 116 patients with non-communicable diseases, belonging to rural communities of the Riobamba canton; The sample was made up of 90 patients. The program included daily video calls, from Monday to Friday for 3 months, to monitor drug adherence, adverse drug events, physical activity, healthy nutrition, and skin care. The general characteristics of the patients and their level of satisfaction with the program activities were analyzed as variables; for which a survey was applied to the participants. Descriptive statistics were used in the processing of the information collected.
Results: Average age of 51.26 years, predominance of female people (54.44%). The most represented chronic diseases were high blood pressure (36.67%), hypothyroidism (25.56%), diabetes mellitus (15.56%) and rheumatoid arthritis (8.89%). 62.22% of patients showed a high level of satisfaction with the program activities.
