Course overview

Chronic diseases like diabetes and cardiovascular conditions are significant contributors to global morbidity and mortality, accounting for 74% of deaths, according to the World Health Organization. The Chronic Care Model (CCM) provides a patient-centered framework to improve care through six components: self-management support, delivery system design, decision support, clinical information systems, healthcare organization, and community resources. Recent research shows that implementing the CCM can enhance clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction, with innovations like eHealth technologies improving accessibility. However, challenges such as workforce training and organizational readiness persist. This course will explore the CCM's components and practical applications, empowering students to contribute to chronic disease care improvements effectively.
