Becoming a specialist in your disease or... your health
Among the most common chronic diseases are cardiovascular diseases, strokes, cancer, diabetes, arthritis, back pain, asthma, etc. These long-term, often progressive illnesses, with an impact on daily life, are constantly on the increase. The impact of the disease on daily life goes far beyond the field of health care.
The research work of our institute focuses on a number of current issues, relating to self-management and self-assessment of symptoms, complex nursing interventions and the increasingly important role of family caregivers.
The projects are presented according to the language of the study.
