Abstract

Different models of care in context of chronicity and multimorbidity include community, health system, clinical practice, health policies, prevention, and health promotion. Among these, the role of the health team as a facilitator of self-management is pointed out, being people the protagonists of their process. Multimorbidity approach is mostly carried out from a risk and disease focused point of view, which limits the exploration of resources of people and their environment. Incorporating a positive health approach can contribute to a greater comprehensiveness. The purpose of this article is to propose an approach from the synergy model of health, integrating salutogenesis and health assets model, to help facilitate self-management promoting people's agency capacity. Potential areas of application of these models are presented to work in the context of multimorbidity, promoting health and well-being conditions in people and their families.
