To work towards the situation in which people living with long term conditions have access to the support they need to successfully manage their condition(s) Established self management as a movement driven by people Helped champion a person centred concept of self management; that people are in the driving seat and can actively contribute to managing their own health and wellbeing Provoked discussion and invested in capacity: about what self management means, what it looks like in practice, and what it means for the core services of the health and social care system
Self Management and Integration Create a new system that: - Is joined-up from the perspective of people who use services Makes it easier for money to flow between the different parts of the system Offers services, which are built around the needs and aspirations of people who use and / or need services Helps people stay well and get support earlier when they need it Designs & delivers services that focus on outcomes and positively impacts on people s lives and the communities they live in Implicit in this, and explicit in the legislation, is the need for the system to coproduces its priorities with people and communities
