New 2023/24 Report Reveals Trends in Patient Self-Management Programmes

A new report on patient education and self-management programmes has been released for 2023/24. The publication continues a long-running series that tracks support for people with long-term health conditions. Data for this year’s findings comes from a dedicated questionnaire. The latest edition, titled Patient education / self management programmes for people with long term conditions 2023/24, builds on previous research. Earlier reports covered the years from 2012/13 up to 2022/23, providing a decade of insights into patient support services.

Information for the current report was gathered through the *Patient education / self management programme questionnaire*. This tool collects details on available programmes, their reach, and how they help individuals manage ongoing health issues.

The 2023/24 report adds to an established body of work on long-term condition management. It offers updated figures and trends based on direct responses from programme providers. The findings will help shape future support for patients with chronic health needs.
