Self-care is an overarching concept related to the actions that people do individually in order to preserve their health and / or prevent disease. There is a broad concept and others relate to not having the same meaning, that are often addressed in the same sense. The literature found those terms such as self-management, self-monitoring, management of symptoms and self-efficacy are mentioned in various studies particularly when trying to identify how the person live / manage your health or your condition. Among all the concepts identified, only one characteristic is common to them all - self-awareness. This refers to learning done, particularly by people with chronic illness, and directed the development of awareness of imperceptible symptoms. The identification of needs of people, particularly women with chronic illness, is clearly the understanding, the differences and similarities of these concepts - self-care, self-management, self-monitoring and management of symptoms.Downloads
