Abstract

Self-care is best when the partner is actively involved in the whole process of managing the heart failure (HF) patient. Heart failure could be improved by educational sessions based on the teach-back approach. The aim is to equip healthcare staff, including French-speaking nurses, with the two-way teach-back approach, with a specific component on self-care for HF couples.

Keywords: approche d’enseignement bidirectionnel; autosoin; couple; heart failure; insuffisance cardiaque; selfcare; teach-back; two-way teaching approach.
