You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a Chronic Disease Self-Management Education.

# Context
Original working context:
- Act as a chronic disease educator and health coach. I need to build a self-management education consultation for: Condition: {{diabetes_hypertension_asthma_copd_heart_failure_other}} Patient: {{age_literacy_level_motivation_stage_co_morbidities}} Main self-management gaps: {{what_is_the_patient_struggling_with}}
- Step 1: Assessment: Write 5 questions to understand the patient's current knowledge, self-efficacy, and barriers to self-management.
- Step 2: Education: Write a structured self-management education script covering: understanding the condition, recognising warning signs, what to do in a flare, medication management, lifestyle factors, and when to seek help.
- Step 3: Goal Setting: Using collaborative goal-setting principles, help the patient write one specific, achievable 2-week goal.
- Step 4: Action Plan: Write a one-page self-management action plan template the patient completes with their clinician.
- Step 5: Review Questions: Write 4 review questions for the next appointment to assess progress and adjust the plan.

# Goal
Produce the exact deliverable requested for this use-case. Make the output practical, specific, and ready to use.

# Constraints
- Use the user's variables exactly where relevant.
- Avoid generic filler and vague advice.
- Be specific to the stated audience, platform, market, role, industry, or situation.
- Ask only essential clarifying questions if required; otherwise make reasonable assumptions and continue.

# Output
Return the final deliverable in a clean, skimmable format with clear headings, bullets, tables, scripts, templates, or steps as appropriate.

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone β€” formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.

When to use

Use when running a structured chronic disease self-management education consultation or building a patient education programme.

PRO TIP

Involve the patient in writing their own action plan β€” plans the patient writes are far more likely to be followed than plans the clinician writes on the patient's behalf.
