Chronic Disease Management

Structured Chronic Disease Management (CDM) Programme

Inchicore Family Doctors are signed up to the Structured Chronic Disease Management (CDM) Programme. This programme aims to prevent and manage patient chronic diseases using a population approach. It helps us identify patients at risk of chronic disease or who have been diagnosed with one or more specified chronic diseases. 

This programme is for patients who have a medical card or GP  visit card and have a diagnosis of one or more of the listed conditions below:

  • Type 2 Diabetes

  • Asthma

  • Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

  • Cardiovascular Disease, including heart failure, heart attack (angina), stroke and irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation)

The Programme is coordinated by our GP's and Practice Nurses, Stephanie Cooney & Orla Smith.
