Seeking lifestyle counselling at primary health care centres: a cross-sectional study in the Swedish population

CONCLUSIONS: Primary health care centres are not the first choice for lifestyle counselling for the majority of adults living in Sweden. We have identified factors predicting low likelihood of using the support available at these centres. In order to work with sustainable and visible health-promotive and disease-preventive strategies at primary health care centres, these settings need to find valid methods to involve and collaborate with the members of the general community, to meet the needs of a population struggling with unhealthy lifestyles.PMID:36941550 | PMC:PMC10026786 | DOI:10.1186/s12875-023-02035-3
