Abstract:

Health coaching can help patients with cardiovascular diseases gain the knowledge, skills, tools, and confidence that they need to become active participants in their self-health and enhance their self-management. The form of health coaching includes motivational interview, self-management support and remote home monitoring. Health coaching can enhance the medication adherence among patients with cardiovascular diseases, promote healthy lifestyles and maintain good psychology in patients, and finally strengthen their self-management. Finally, this paper proposes that China should pay more attention to the health coaching, such as establishing the relevant departments of health coaching, strengthening the training and certification of health coaches through the examination of theory and skills, and exploring the establishment of a technical program for health coaching and intervention that is suitable for China, so that patients with cardiovascular diseases can be benefited.
