  The Flinders Program consists of a set of tools that are completed by the client and the health care worker as a team. Its goal is to provide a systematic, evidence-based approach to assessing self-management capacity and assisting care planning for individuals with chronic illnesses. It includes a questionnaire, a structured interview to explore responses in more depth, and ultimately a care plan. Produced by the Human Behaviour & Health Research Unit at Flinders University in Australia.
