Funded Activity Summary

Goal setting and chronic condition self-management. Chronic condition healthcare contributes 70 per cent of Australia's healthcare burden. Without a cure, chronic condition self-management is imperative. The dominant medical approach prioritises compliance with medical and lifestyle regimes. There is little evidence that patients' needs and wishes accord with the medical model. Drawing on psychological and sociological insights, this unique project investigates how self-management goals are negotiated and enacted, providing essential understanding of the mismatch between experts and patients. The project aims to contribute new knowledge about the complex interactions between individuals and healthcare providers and is expected to result in a way forward for more effective chronic condition self-management.
