Iranian National Self-Care Support System Pattern
Message:
Abstract:
Context: Most of the studies proved that effective self-care of patients depends on continuing systematic support of patients to improve their knowledge, skills, and confidence of self-care. With regard to the importance of self-care support system, the design of a pattern for it in Iran was placed on the agenda through the ministry of health and medical education (MOHME) project. The aim of this article is to develop a pattern through two steps; the first is critically analyzing the literature on the structure and functions of self-care support system, and the second is to summarize potential factors which can be used as self-care support system components in health system to synthesize the pattern.
Evidence Acquisition: Systematic literature searches of papers published between 2002 - 2014 were carried out using the electronic databases. Critical interpretive synthesis (CIS) was then undertaken to provide a comprehensive overview of the topic for developing the national pattern. Finally, scrutinizing the pattern was done through focus group discussion of experts in MOHME.
Results
We found the steps of designing a system for self-care support. Then, we set the goals and strategies of self-care support program and factors affecting the choice of self-care support pattern. Then, series of interventions were selected as self-care program pattern by a team of health care providers from all levels of the health system. Components of self-care support system in the country based on their interactions with patients and place of the program in the health care system were categorized in a matrix.
Conclusions
To empower the staff of self-care support system, an appropriate training design is needed beside a good self-care support program. Self-care team members must teach specific information or skills to patients and their families. These members must possess special knowledge and skills. Also, the evaluation of self-care support program is one of the main components of the national system of self-care.
