Achieving Your Personal Health Goals: A Patient's Guide

Good health care is care that helps you achieve your health goals. However, most of us haven't thought very much about our goals or how to achieve them, and the health care system is too often focused on problem-solving rather than on helping you achieve your personal health goals. In this book, the author, an experienced primary care physician and teacher provides real life examples and practical advice that will help you live a long and rewarding life, maximize your ability to enjoy essential and meaningful activities, increase your ability to face health challenges, and make end-of-life plans consistent with your preferences and values. It includes 16 chapters divided into 3 sections, The Goals of Health and Health Care, Obstacles and Challenges, and Achieving Your Health Goals. Questions for contemplation or discussion accompany the first 14 chapters. The book has 256 pages.Read more
