Despite the numerous guidelines supporting exercise and weight loss/management for osteoarthritis, they are challenging to implement in day-to-day life. Key actions for management are often not reaching health care providers and patients do not always receive high-value care. One of the biggest barriers to behaviour change is getting people to start and adhere to a lifestyle intervention. On a systems level, there are major challenges with access to care and communication regarding optimal care. On this episode of Joint Action, in an era being affected by COVID, Julie Leask joins us to discuss how we can improve behaviour change in OA from our learnings from current vaccination strategies.
Julie is professor at the University of Sydney’s Susan Wakil School of Nursing and Midwifery. Her research over 23 years has focused on the social and behavioural aspects of immunisation – what people think and do about it, programs and policies. She has a Master of Public Health and nursing and midwifery qualifications. Julie is visiting fellow at the National Centre for Immunisation Research and Surveillance where she previously worked for 12 years and set up the social science unit. She currently chairs the WHO Behavioural and Social Drivers of Vaccination working group. In 2019, Julie was the overall winner of the Australian Financial Review 100 Women of Influence award.
