How Consumers Negotiate Between Complementary And Conventional Health Systems - A Qualitative Study Of 'Depression'

Abstract

This project explores how people with depression negotiate their health care between the complementary and conventional health systems. We will interview consumers about their experiences and present these findings to focus groups of general practitioners, naturopaths and educators. Our findings will be used to assist in getting the best possible education and health policy for doctors, naturopaths and the community to ensure safe use of medicines.
