“More than one in four Americans has multiple chronic conditions. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services recently released material specifically for them — and the people who care for them.
Multiple Chronic Conditions Education and Training includes a searchable database of nearly 70 education resources that allows people living with chronic conditions to easily find information that meets their specific needs. Additionally, HHS created a “curriculum” of six separate training modules to match with each person’s role in treating chronic conditions: person- and family-centered care; self-management support; complex care; inter-professional collaboration; coordinated care delivery; and a systems-based “team approach,” incorporating health IT and shared decision-making.
Visit HHS online to learn more about management of multiple chronic conditions, including a “day in the life” video for people living with them.” [Source: COPrevent]
