Chronic Disease Self-Management Program Toolkit

Description

Centralina Area Agency on Aging (AAA), North Carolina Center for Health and Wellness (NCCHW) and the North Carolina Division of Aging and Adults Services (NCDAAS) are implementing an at-home version of the Chronic Disease Self-Management Program (CDSMP), which is an internationally recognized, six-week evidence-based program. The AAA used the Self-Management Resource Center’s (SMRC) CDSMP Tool Kit Plus. The CDSMP Tool Kit Plus is a six-week, at-home course using SMRC script for weekly conference calls as check-in points. This allows for weekly engagement with clients by phone to help with social isolation, and allows those with limited access to computers and technology to participate.
