Evidence: Helping people help themselves

[Health Navigator NZ]

Great resource recently published by The Health Foundation in the UK. Provides " a review of the evidence considering whether it is worthwhile to support self-management." 

 

Excellent list on page vi highlighting general components that have been found to work well to support self-management. 

Nearly all of the elements listed here are key to both the Stanford programme and the Flinders programme such as problem solving, goal setting, developing care plans in partnership between service users and professionals, and helping people to manage the social, emotional and physical impact of their conditions.
