Abstract:
There are some common problems such as recurrent symptoms and poor compliance among patients with chronic diseases. Although scientific knowledge and skills have been learned from traditional health education, patients with chronic diseases cannot improve their life style continuously. At present, many researches abroad have proved that health coaching contributes to setting feasible goals and encourages continuously behavior change of patients. In China, health coaching is in the stage of becoming familiar with its scientific definition, intervention effect and application characteristics. And health coaching also needs evidences from high-level evidence-based studies. Along with continuous improvement of intervention techniques on health management, health coaching will get further development and standardization.
