The Experience of Self‐Care in People With Osteoporosis: A Qualitative Descriptive Study
Self-care in osteoporosis is a multidimensional and dynamic process influenced by individual beliefs, contextual factors, and support from healthcare professionals. Recognizing the variability in patients' self-care behaviors is essential to develop personalized education and support. Strengthening general health behaviors may enhance disease-specific self-care. This understanding can guide healthcare professionals in designing more effective, tailored care strategies.
