To supervise agents in a mutual aid experience in Motril Mental Health Day Hospital. To perform a supporting role among the agents involved in a mutual aid program to consolidate its operations autonomously.

A multidisciplinary working group, which met every two weeks for 4 months was set. Group sessions were planned. We selected mutual aid pairs individually and addressed the difficulties in the process. The experiment was performed with 4 agents setting a maximum of 5 interviews. A success criterion of 80% of the meetings planned was established. In between mutual aid group, success criterion was to maintain a 3-month experience held by 5 members. A qualitative analysis of most important issues amongst coordination meetings were also held.

Three out of 4 pairs reached 80% of the interviews successfully. The support group was developed weekly during 3 months with an average of 8 participants. The trending topics during coordination meetings were toxic consumption, acute crisis, drug intake and issues to be addressed with the psychiatrist.

Mutual aid among users is a way of intervention that needs to be further consolidated. The establishment is still unpretentious and has low weight amongst coordination objectives. The results addressed in number of sessions and satisfaction are favorable, but it is necessary to assess the experience widely and to begin developing specific objectives [1,2].
