Multi-Disciplinary Education Class/Patient Education Center

Self-management or self-care support entails helping patients solve the care problems that are important to them; dealing with the impacts of their disease(s) on their daily lives and goals; and helpingimprove their confidence in their ability to manage their health. Self-management support “puts the patient in patient-centered care.” Most patients are simply not interested in managing their "disease," and in fact may deny the diagnosis because they feel distressed by the stigma of having a serious health problem or fear the consequences of the disease(s). What patients first need help managing is not their disease, but the current or potential impacts of the disease on their daily lives and their hopes and dreams.

By helping patients manage the impacts of their disease(s), we help them manage their disease(s). This is the heart of self-care or self-management support.

Multidisciplinary Educational Seminars are available through the 319 th MDG
