Self-Care Management Education Through Health Coaching for Heart Failure Patients

Self-care management education is 1 of the recommendations of the European Society of Cardiology given to reduce the readmission rate of patients with heart failure (HF). As 1 of the methods of the educational approach, health coaching has a positive potential in making education effective so that it will improve patient outcomes. This study aimed to identify the effect of self-care management education with health coaching methods on the 30-day readmission rate and outcomes of patients with HF. Providing self-care management education by health coaching may help improve self-care and positively affect outcomes of patients with HF.
