Health care professionals’ perspectives on self-management for people with Parkinson’s: qualitative findings from a UK study

Abstract

This study is the first to explore the perspectives of HCPs on self-management in people with Parkinson's. Our findings have identified important considerations surrounding empowerment, motivation, carers and contextual barriers to better understand how we enable effective self-management techniques in people with Parkinson's. Research should build on these findings on to develop acceptable and effective self-management tools for use in practice with people affected by Parkinson's.
