In the context of chronic illness where the number of affected patients continues to grow, therapeutic education is booming, and is today at the heart of professional practice in the medico-social sectors. To be autonomous, the patient needs to be supported and accompanied in learning about their pathology, their treatments, their health behaviors, and to be able to express their experience of the illness. This book will guide caregivers in the implementation and practice of therapeutic education. It comes from the experience and reflection of the transversal patient education unit (UTEP) and health professionals from the Montpellier University Hospital. It constitutes a guide and offers a complete overview of therapeutic education. In-depth reflection from different disciplines is also presented, making it possible to reinforce the meaning of educational care. The central place of the patient as a whole person, an actor in his health and a social actor, is underlined. Thanks to its numerous examples and practical sheets, this work is an essential tool for healthcare teams to implement therapeutic education and to be part of this culture.
