Self management support:
Shift 3
“self management support is what health services do in order
to aid and encourage people living with a long term
condition to make daily decisions that improve health
related behaviours and clinical, and other outcomes”
It can viewed in two ways: as a portfolio of techniques and
tools: and as a fundamental transformation of the patientcaregiver relationship into a collaborative partnership”
(Co creating Health Programme 2008)

Long term conditions and supported self
management
• Evidence that self management can improve
health status in chronic conditions:
can empower the person to act for themselves,
increase confidence in their ability to manage
consequences of both condition and its
treatment, and
enhance health quality of life.
• Aspects of cancer survivorship are emerging as
having a ‘chronic component’.

Cancer survivors have similar health and well
being profile to people with other long term
conditions.
(Macmillan Health & Wellbeing Survey 2007):
• Four times more likely to have health problem
• Higher percentages have ongoing physical problems
• 30% of cancer survivors agreed their health prevented
them from working in their preferred occupation
• Higher percentage had used various health services,
including GP, specialist doctor, A&E and surgery.

Need improved awareness of late effects and
the importance of healthy lifestyle and
support for lifestyle decisions
(Macmillan HWB Follow-Up Survey 2008)
• 40% unaware of late effects of cancer and treatment
• 35% unaware of increased importance of healthy
lifestyle
• 40% with a psychological condition did not seek help;
• 19% with a physical condition did not seek help.

• Survivors experiencing depressive symptoms/ greater
psychological difficulties
• Greater risk of sexual dysfunction related to treatment
• Ethnic minorities
• Low literacy groups
• Single, socially isolated, lacking social support
• Older people and others with co morbidities or mobility issues

-information provision
-problem solving
-modelling
-personal goal setting
-practice
-social comparison

- CBT techniques
- consider length

Health and Well Being Clinics
 Macmillan is funding 15 pilot HWB
Clinics across the UK
 HWB Clinics happen at the end of
treatment, where patients hear from
professionals about managing their
cancer, signs and symptoms, and how to
get help.
 They will get help with lifestyle
management, and information about self
management and support groups.
 Volunteers will be key to the clinics,
meeting & greeting, organising and
offering peer support.

Implementing self management shift depends on
three enablers:
 Self management education
and training programmes
 Skills development for
professionals
 Institutional support for
service redesign
