How can I help?
Care managers and other health care professionals working closely with members with chronic disease have the opportunity to help them make positive changes by discussing programs like CDSMP. This discussion may need to occur more than once with members who may be contemplating a healthy behavior change but are unsure of how to begin. Members may also appreciate assistance in being referred to a local workshop or an on-line alternative.
Who should attend CDSMP?
CDSMP is designed for adults age 18 and over who have a chronic disease, or those who live with or care for someone with a chronic disease. Almost any patient or caregiver you encounter would be appropriate to refer to this program. Exceptions include; individuals under age 18, those with memory impairments, and, specifically for the community-based workshops, those who are homebound or too frail to get out, or are unable to travel to the workshop site.
