SELF MANAGEMENT MODULES

Developed by University of the Highlands and Islands (UHI) in collaboration with Skills for Health, NHS Highland, Local

Authority, NHS Education for Scotland and Long Term Conditions Alliance Scotland

BACKGROUND

The management of people with long term conditions has become a priority for Health, Local Authority (LA) and Voluntary Sector organisations. This is due to a changing burden of disease nationally. People are living longer with long term conditions, they are more likely to see their General Practitioner, be admitted to hospital and stay in hospital longer than people without long term conditions. In addition, they are more likely to require the support of social care, housing and other local authority services and will be more likely to access services and support provided by voluntary organisations. The Highlands area has a higher than average elderly population. It has been estimated that by age of 65 nearly two thirds of people have developed at least one long term condition and by age 75-84 have 2 or more long term conditions. (Scottish Household Survey, 2005/06)

It has been highlighted that the current medical model of health and social care is no longer sustainable. A more proactive approach is required. “The next twenty years will see an ageing population, a continuing shift in the pattern of disease towards long term conditions and a growing number of older people with multiple conditions and complex needs. These changes in themselves will make the current model of health care delivery unsustainable” (Kerr Report, 2005) It is recognised that promoting supported self management will enable people living with long term conditions to achieve and maintain optimum wellbeing. The Scottish Government clearly outlines its vision for self management in the documents Delivering for Health (2005) and Better Health Better Care Action Plan (2008). The Long Term Conditions Alliance Scotland (LTCAS) on behalf of the Scottish Government published its “Gaun Yersel Self Management Strategy for Long Term Conditions in Scotland (2008). This strategy defined self care and self management as follows:

Self care is what each person does on an everyday basis but which is often compromised in a person living their life with a long term condition.

Self management is the process each person develops to manage their condition.

Support for self care and self management is the responsibility not only of health and social care providers and unpaid carers, but also of individuals and wider society, including employers and the voluntary sector. “Self management is a concept where the person takes ownership and is central. It is a process of becoming empowered to manage life with long term conditions. It is not an individual action, a specific treatment or service; neither can it be delivered by a single organisation. Self management is the successful outcome of the person and all appropriate individuals and services working together to support him or her to deal with the very real implications of living the rest of their life with one or more long term condition” (LTCAS, 2008, p12).

Long term conditions and self management are key priorities within the Better Health Better Care Action Plan (2008) and clearly identifies the patients as a partner in their care.

The Scottish Government’s self management strategy clearly identifies the need for workforce development and calls for all staff to attend awareness sessions on the values and principles of self management but calls for this to be followed up by education. The Long Term Conditions Collaborative launched by the Scottish Government as one of its National Improvement projects has self management as one of its 3 streams of work to be carried out over the next 3 years. This includes self management opportunities for people living with long term conditions as well as developing our workforce. The reporting process for that has commenced and as such we need to be developing our staff by different mediums, such as education, and service development to ensure that service change and culture change begins across the organisation.

This will require a shift in culture from our current model of service delivery to a more enabling and empowering service which will ensure that service users are partners in their care. This change will result in a shared responsibility for care and condition management from anticipatory care through to self management of chronic conditions.

Anticipating and preventing exacerbations of conditions and linking with self management plans will assist the board in meeting key objectives around care delivery, in particular preventing hospital admissions and reducing lengths of stay.

The Scottish Government has announced its intention to mainstream from 2012-13 a programme of inequalities-targeted, high risk primary prevention based on the Keep Well/ Well North model. The programme will offer health checks to those who are most likely to suffer from inequalities and will focus on cardiovascular disease (CVD). However the risk factors for CVD are shared by a number of chronic conditions, so by targeting CVD the programme also targets many long term conditions (A consultation paper on the mainstreaming of the Keep Well / Well North programmes, May 2010).

KEY OBJECTIVES

Provide a training and education resource to health and social care professionals to feel confident in promoting and teaching self management techniques to clients (NHS Highland Self management action plan, 2009)

Reduction over time in the need to access health and social care services (NHS Highland self management action plan, 2009)

THE MODULES

UHI in partnership with Skills for Health, NHS Highland, Local Authority, NHS Education for Scotland, LTCAS have developed an educational package made up of two Masters level modules. This package will support a leadership model for enabling self management across Highland by educating social and health care staff with an enhanced role for development.

The two modules focus on Self Management and Leadership. A key component of the course will be on delivering and sustaining change within the organisation and its partners. This will ultimately promote more enabling organisations. For NHS staff, this will be linked to the career framework.

The modules will incorporate competencies and these will form the base of a resource available to staff on completion of the course to take back to their local areas as a learning tool. Both modules will be delivered by distance learning with a requirement for only one face to face session within the first module.

The aim is to develop self management champions across Highland. It is hoped that after completion of the module and the assessed practice change that these self management champions will continue to raise awareness about self management and to facilitate change within their workplace. A network of management champions will be set up to support them in their role. This network will link in to and be supported by, other Long Term Conditions work currently ongoing in Highland.

It is vital staff are supported by their managers to enable them to participate in the two modules and to take part in actively developing a practice change within their workplace.

MODULE 1 ENABLING SELF MANAGEMENT: DEVELOPING PRACTICE

This module takes the student through a thorough exploration of the concept of self management and the theories and research evidence which underpin this way of managing health. The student will have an opportunity to understand the commonalities between self management, anticipatory care and self care. They will understand the significance of behavioural change as the key underpinning theoretical position and intervention base. As well as exploring the theoretical nature of health behaviour change students will audit, evaluate and consider the application of a range of self management resources. Integral to the module is an exploration and practice of the communication and consultation skills which empower individuals to manage their health effectively. There is a requirement to attend 1 face to face session the remainder of the module is delivered online.

This module also investigates the consultation and communication skills conducive to empowering clients and developing a partnership approach.  The underpinning theories, principles and issues are covered in the online material of this module.  In order to enable students to practice the skills and techniques in a secure and comfortable environment prior to using these skills with clients, a one day training day is provided.  This part of the course shares many features with the Health Behaviour Change Courses being delivered by Health Scotland and Health Promotion Highland NHS Board as well as other Health Boards. If students have taken one of the Health Behaviour Change courses previously or takes one of the courses available within their own geographical area, then they do not need to attend the face to face training day.  Students are requested to submit their certificates for the Health Behaviour Change courses they attended at enrolment.   

Face to Face, 7 hours; Online activity, approximately 50hrs; Self directed study, approximately 93hrs. (Total 150 hours). A copy of the module descriptors (appendix 1) is included in this pack for further information relating to the modules.

MODULE 2 ENABLING SELF MANAGEMENT: LEADING CHANGE

This module enables students to become leaders in the cultural shift towards supporting self management in practice settings. Students will explore and evaluate practice settings using previously gained knowledge from Module 1 on the principles and practices of self management. They will identify opportunities which can enhance self management support with a focus on collaborative approaches between organisations. Students will plan, implement and evaluate their planned changes leaving a legacy of evaluated projects. This module is delivered completely online.

Online activity, approximately 60hrs; Self directed study, approximately 90hrs. (Total 150 hours). A copy of the module descriptors (appendix 1) is included in this pack for further information relating to the modules.

The Competency Framework

Underpinning these modules will be a competency framework. Students will be asked to self assess against the competencies at the beginning of the first module. They will then be asked to self assess at the end of the second module. It is anticipated that during the two modules the students will have been able to meet most of these competencies. The competency framework is a stand alone tool that can be utilised more widely across organisations and linked into a Professional Development Plan (PDP) process.

OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS

Support and endorsement from service and operational managers across organisations to ensure staff are supported to facilitate practice change

Agreed study leave support for the one day face to face session Support and endorsement from service and operational managers for staff to take on

role of self management champion, this role to be negotiated locally within CHP with operational managers, lead nurses, lead AHP and Local Authority managers

Line Managers and lead AHPs/lead nurses/Local authority senior managers will be required to sign a line manager agreement form to indicate the fully support the student to attend the modules and take on the role of self management champion

Supported time to take on this role can be agreed locally between line manager, student and lead nurse/AHP/senior Local authority manager

All students and their line managers will receive a copy of this pre guidance pack. This pack is designed to support students and their line managers by informing them of the expectations required of them during the course and in a continuing role once the course is completed. The line manager form (appendix 2) and UHI application form (appendix 3 or apply online http://www.apply.uhi.ac.uk/form.html ) will be completed prior to registration for all students on the course. Admission requirements are in Appendix 4 and if any applicant is aiming for admission through the ‘additional admission or credit transfer routes’ they will be required to undertake and pass an academic piece of work. Without completion of these forms showing support from their line manager, and the appropriate qualifications to undertake the module, the student will not be able to attend.

All completed line manager approval forms and UHI application forms must be returned to Fiona Skinner, Subject Network Leader Health and Wellbeing, UHI, Centre for Health Science, Old Perth Road, Inverness, IV2 3JH or by emailing fiona.skinner@uhi.ac.uk by 31st July 2011

2 MODULE DESCRIPTOR

A Aims

By the end of this module, students will :1. Have had the opportunity to explore the philosophies, policies, agencies

and processes that underpin the self management and anticipatory care agenda.

2. have studied a range of environmental, social and personal factors which explain behaviour and have explored the theoretical basis which underpin self management programmes

3. Had an opportunity to review the available self management resources accessible within their geographical area.

4. Have explored the values, skills and practices which are amenable to settings aiming for a shared responsibility for health.

B Intended learning outcomes1. Critically examine the social, economic and political factors which have

led to a notion of mutual health service and how this influences the provision of health and social care.

2. Critically analyse social and individual factors and the theoretical frameworks which explain and predict health behaviour and underpin health management programmes

3. Critically evaluate the features of self management programmes/resource in terms of their capacity to meet client need

4. Analyse communication and consultation theories and models.5. Implement skills to support the shared practice approach to health

management.

C Indicative contentSelf management, anticipatory care and self care are three different yet linked notions that we use to describe the health related behaviour of individuals. They all share similarities in principles, practices and behavioural repertoires. Each of these agendas is underpinned by the principle that the nature of health care needs to ensure that individuals are involved and active in managing their own health. This represents a significant change in the culture and landscape of health and social care provision. As such, health and social care workers and the settings they work in and the practices they employ need to facilitate this change and adapt their practice from a position of providing care to one of partnership of care. This module will focus on the common factors, theories and practices which promote, initiate and sustain health behaviour and which facilitate the ‘shared responsibility’ of health by the individual and practitioner. By focusing on this principle of shared health management which drives the practice of self management and anticipatory care, the currency of the module will be sustained into the future.

A unique feature of this module will be the blended approach to mapping of competencies alongside the analysis of the theoretical and research literature which is implicit in facilitating a self management culture. The module is underpinned by the Skills for Health Common Core Principles to support self care. Critically, this module will be informed by the remote and rural agenda. In the initialstages of the programme for example, policies and strategies will be considered against their capacity to be operationalised within a rural and remote geography.

Similarly the specific needs of clients who live in these areas will be highlighted throughout the module as will the additional demands that may be placed on the practitioner who works in this environment.

Practitioners working in particular settings will have an opportunity to focus on their study on their area of choice.

This is an educational package of material. It will be delivered in sections using a blended learning approach employing: online virtual learning materials and synchronous and asynchronous interactive discussions and a face to face component for the consultation/ communication curriculum delivery.

2 MODULE DESCRIPTOR

a Aims : by the end of this module, students will :5. have explored the notion of culture and beliefs within organisations and

professional groups and how this may impact on processes of change6. have explored the rationale, skills, principles and theoretical foundations

associated with system change and considered their application in terms of facilitating a shift toward supporting self management

7. Reviewed the benefits, opportunities and challenges associated with working

in partnership with other agencies and sectors to achieve the cultural shift towards the self management agenda

8. Have had an opportunity to explore the skills, issues and approaches to undertaking an evaluation of the self management support of the service.

9. Have evaluated service delivery, identified a specific and focused element to change with the objective of increasing self management support, initiate the change and review the success of that change.

b Intended learning outcomes 6. Critically examine theories of change management and leading change7. Examine partnership approaches to developing self management approach 8. Undertake a service evaluation of the self management support using a

critically appraised instrument for evaluation.9. Plan and implement a short focused change to service delivery designed to

enhance self management practice 10. Critically evaluate the short focused change.

c RationaleTo enhance and develop capacity and capability for strategic change management, through underpinning health policy, the theory of behavioural change management, and the provision of mechanisms. To specifically respond to change including the evaluation of service delivery that achieves system and cultural improvement and service innovation.

Indicative content:This course offers participants from the health and social care sector the opportunity to facilitate and evaluate a process of change and improvement which aims to increase capacity to support self management.

Students will become part of the implementation of a cultural shift towards the shared responsibility of health management. The practices, skills, styles, attitudes and behaviour which generate this type of health management both from the position of professionals and clients will come under investigation and can become targets for change. Students will emerge from this module with the appropriate knowledge and skills to broker and champion change towards meeting the criteria necessary for achieving a mutuality of health management in the setting.

Students will commence study by exploring the theories of change and processes of managing and leading change. They will use previously gained understanding of the principles and practices of self management from module 1 to inform their review.

The course will provide both theory and critical evaluation of service evaluation approaches. Students will undertake an evaluation of their service and the extent to which it facilitates and supports self management. Key to this evaluation will be an assessment of the level of partnership that exists between the setting and other practices and organisations. Using a reflective cyclical process such as ‘do-review-apply’, students would plan, implement and review a targeted area for change. The focus of this change would be towards adopting a collaborative approach with other settings/practices/organisations. Specific evaluation techniques – process and outcome evaluation, logic modeling and a range of strategic change management analysis tools such as: Lewin’s Force Field Analysis; SWOT; underpinning ‘do-review-apply’; and SMART objectives; would be used in order that the designated element to change would be optimally implemented and evaluated against set targets.
