Why use supported self-management?

Supported self-management is an integral part of several important Scottish government strategies and reports including:

A National Clinical Strategy for Scotland (February 2016) [.pdf]
A Route Map to the 2020 Vision for Health and Social Care [.pdf]
Realising Realistic Medicine: Chief Medical Officer for Scotland annual report 2015-2016

These focus on prevention, anticipation and supported self-management with the patient/client firmly at the center of all decisions, taking charge of their health and maintaining their independence for as long as possible. Health and social care professionals work in ways to ensure people with long-term conditions have the knowledge, skills, confidence and support to self-manage.
