Care Planning encourages an interactive partnership between
clinician and patient to support self management of patients and
their long term condition.
Care planning supports
patients to understand and manage their condition confidently.
Prior to an appointment with their clinician the patient is
provided with information regarding their medical test results with
a clear explanation regarding what they mean and how changes can
lead to positive results. The patient is then supported by the
clinician at their appointment to look at one or two achievable
goals over an agreed time period.
