Abstract:
The physician has an important role in identifying unhealthy lifestyles, offering counselling and, if necessary, referring the patient to another profession or care unit. Therefore, knowledge and skills related to lifestyle habits are included in the goal description for residents in all clinical specialities. SK courses in lifestyle habits should be based on National Guidelines for Prevention and Treatment - Support for Governance and Management (2018), issued by the Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare. Preferably, the course should include training sessions where the participants can practice the counselling techniques. The ethical principles provide the foundation for work related to lifestyle habits. The course should include evidence-based knowledge on how lifestyle habits affect symptoms, risk factors, and diseases, as well as the effect of changing lifestyle habits. Also, discussions about local routines and the physician's role in addressing lifestyle habits are valuable components of the course.
