| dc.description.abstract | Community health workers (CHWs) are change agents expected to assist in
decreasing the global burden of disease in the communities they serve. However, they
themselves have health risk behaviours, which predispose them to non-communicable diseases
and thus need to be empowered to make better health choices. There is a gap in literature
detailing the challenges faced by CHWs in addressing their own health risk behaviours.: This study aimed to explore the challenges experienced by CHWs in carrying out their
daily duties and the motivating factors to join a self-management programme. | en_US |
