Drivers for change – self management – living with and after cancer
Self management support evidence: 1. Collaborative interaction/patient professional relationship: Basic building block is the culture change to incorporate self management support and use behaviour change techniques during routine clinical practice to enhance patient’s abilities and confidence to be effective ‘self managers’ 2. Self management programmes: Programmes can develop generic skills such as problem solving and enhancing self efficacy, and /or be type/symptom specific. There can be improvements in QoL, symptom management, coping behaviour, and knowledge of condition. 3. Self management is for all: It starts with exploring patients beliefs, knowledge, and values about their role in self management – it’s a journey
