Summary |
In Australia chronic diseases are accountable for 80 percent of the total burden of disease, mental health and injury (AIHW 2006). While usually not immediately life threatening, chronic diseases are the leading causes of premature mortality. Through a series of case studies, this program explores the principles of prevention and multidisciplinary management of chronic disease and the practical application in rural and remote health services |
