Study Notes

Chronic Care Model (CCM)

  • The CCM is a model developed by Wagner and adapted by organizations like the CDC.
  • It's a framework for improving chronic disease management.
  • It aims to improve healthcare quality and prevent complications.
  • The CCM seeks to ensure high-quality care across various illnesses, settings, and populations.
  • It fosters partnerships between providers and communities.
  • The CCM's goal is to improve patient health, provider satisfaction, and reduce costs.

Objectives of the Chronic Care Model

  • Define the chronic condition.
  • Identify the purpose of the chronic care model.
  • Identify three risk factors leading to chronic disease.
  • Identify the management of chronic conditions.
  • Identify the elements of the model.
  • Identify the application of CCM into practice.

Definition of Chronic Condition

  • A chronic condition refers to any long-term health issue needing continuous self-management by the individual and regular interaction with the healthcare system.

Definition of Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs)

  • Also called chronic diseases, NCDs are typically long-lasting.
  • They result from a mix of genetic, physiological, environmental, and behavioral factors (according to the WHO).

Risk Factors for Chronic Diseases

  • Poor dietary habits
  • Lack of physical activity
  • Tobacco use
  • Excessive alcohol consumption
  • Aging
  • Bad lifestyle

Statistics on Chronic Diseases in Jordan (2016)

  • Jordan experienced 29,855 deaths in 2016.
  • 76% (22,690) of these deaths were attributed to NCDs.
  • In 2025, the number of NCD-related deaths is expected to rise to 29,487.
  • These deaths are primarily caused by cardiovascular diseases, cancer, chronic respiratory diseases, and diabetes.
  • The risk of death from an NCD between the ages of 30 and 70 in Jordan is 20%.
  • In 2010, 13% of the population had chronic diseases.
