National Self-Care Week
Self-Care Week is an annual national awareness week that focuses on embedding support for self-care across communities, families and generations.
Why is self-care good for people?
- Empowering people with the confidence and knowledge to look after themselves when they can, and access health services when they need to, gives them greater agency in their life and encourages healthy behaviours that help prevent ill health in the long-term.
- In many cases people can take care of their common conditions, reducing the number of surgery visits enabling health professionals to focus on caring for higher risk patients, such as those with co-morbidities, the very young and the elderly.
- More cost-effective use of stretched NHS resources allows money to be spent where it’s most needed, helping to secure better health outcomes in the population.
