Résumé :
Patients with chronic conditions have complex and extensive health and social care needs that are not well served by top down models of care.
With the number of chronic patients increasing, the quality of their care largely depends on patient empowerment through self-management education, aimed at increasing the patients’ capacity to manage their own disease and care process.
However, while self-management education programs exist for most chronic conditions, their effectiveness varies widely. Factors that impact on the effectiveness of self-management education programs include the program characteristics and format, the patient characteristics including multimorbidity and health literacy, implementation fidelity and adaptation, and organisational characteristics.
The presentation will draw on the results of the EU-funded DIABETES LITERACY study and related studies to discuss the critical success factors of chronic disease self-management education and offers suggestions for improvement. It will be argued that in planning for the future, healthcare policies and models of care are required that cater for the complex needs of patients and deliver coordinated care that is patient-centred, empower patients to self-manage, and focus on multidisciplinary teamwork and shared decision-making.
