Brief Summary:
The study will support implementation of a health promotive work-way in primary care setting by using external and internal facilitators, with the aim to identify effective implementation strategies and to evaluate intervention uptake. Data will be collected from multiple perspecitves.
Detailed Description:
Insufficient physical activity, hazardous use of alcohol, tobacco use and unhealthy eating habits increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases, cancer and type 2-diabetes. Health-promoting work reduces the disease risk and mortality and should thus be integrated in clinical care processes.
Despite support by the National guideline for prevention and treatment of unhealthy life-style habits, there is a chasm to bridge when integrating evidence into clinical practise. Prerequisites for changing work-ways are often underestimated and left to the individual co-workers to full fill on their own.
Too few patients are asked about life-style habits and too few receive evidence-based measures. The measures taken may also depend on sex, language, residence and caregiver's profession. The investigators strive to support the implementation of a health-promoting way of working that includes self-reporting of life-style habits before a visit and that takes measures for those with at least one unhealthy lifestyle habit.
The aim is to identify effective implementation strategies for health-promoting efforts in the primary care. The perceptions of barriers and opportunities when changing way of working from the target groups (leaders, co-workers, patients) will be used to enhance the possibility of successful implementation. Strategies are enhanced by theories of leading change. External and internal facilitators support the implementation.
The study will evaluate the effects and the implementation process at the level of leaders, patients, co-workers, facilitators and organisation in short (4-6 months) and long term (16-18 months).
The project provides generalizable knowledge on strategies to overcome the gap between evidence and praxis, contributing to utilize an existing synthesized knowledgebase regarding health-promoting and preventative workways in a Swedish primary care setting.
It is central for the health care system to identify successful implementation strategies in order to manage their future mission.
