Self-Management Support: A Health Care Intervention
The British Columbia Ministry of Health has actively supported self-management for chronic health conditions since 2002. This support has been primarily directed to the delivery of evidence-based self- management programs for persons with chronic health conditions and training in self-management support strategies for health professionals.
British Columbia’s “Patients as Partners” initiative has enabled coordination in both planning and evaluation aspects of self-management programming which has resulted in a comprehensive focused approach at the provincial level. In concert with this activity, the province has been facilitating a re-orientation in health care delivery for persons with chronic conditions. BC’s Patients as Partners agenda has brought together community partners, the Ministry of Health Services, professional organizations, universities, individual practitioners and regional health authorities to advance participatory care.
