Health & Wellbeing

What is Health and Wellbeing Coaching?

Health and Wellbeing Coaches support patients by empowering them to become more confident at managing their own health. They provide a safe space for patients to explore the gap between their current reality and where they want to get to. Health and Wellbeing Coaches do not give advice. They use a holistic approach to develop the knowledge, skills and confidence of patients, through increasing motivation and promoting behavioural change.

Health and Wellbeing Coaches often focus on areas such as healthy eating, physical activity, weight management, sleep and mental wellbeing. They support the self-management of long-term conditions e.g. hypertension, diabetes, heart disease etc.
