AnnotationThis document updates a May 2004 publication, 'Chronic disease management: a compendium of information' with the most up-to-date statistics and evidence on long-term conditions LTCs. It will further inform all those who are involved in both commissioning and providing care and support services for people with LTCs. It focuses on the outcomes that people with LTCs have said they want from services; describes examples of local innovations and achievements in delivering personalised care (e.g. self care and self-directed care); and summarises the national strategic direction and what health and social care communities can do. An annexe suggests publications on self-care, disease management, case management, also risk prediction tools, many of which are available as downloads. (RH).
