Readiness Index

  • About the Self-Care Readiness Index

    SCRI is intended to serve as a practical tool for self-care advocates and a catalyst for further debate on the importance of self-care as an effective means to improve the long-term sustainability of health care systems and individual health outcomes, reduce out-of-pocket expenses, and enhance productivity.

  • Launch of the Self-Care Readiness Index 2.0

    During its Global Congress in Cape Town, GSCF launched the second edition of the Self-Care Readiness Index (SCRI), examining how self-care policies are being implemented across the world. The first and second editions of the Index, together covering 20 countries, demonstrate very clearly that there is a widespread lack of a coherent view of self-care and its benefits.
