Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Comorbidities associated with chronic diseases lead to functional, emotional, and disabling limitations, which implies constant management of symptoms and repercussions for both the patient and informal caregivers.
With this Special Issue, we intend to contribute to objective 3 of the 2030 Agenda regarding the Sustainable Development Goals. In this sense, we are looking for articles that focus on healthcare responses, which present more sustainable, equitable and inclusive solutions, both in the hospital and in the community and public health context, with special attention being paid to people with chronic illnesses and family caregivers who are experiencing health-illness transition processes, chronic disease management and rehabilitation.
This Special Issue aims to bring together scientific articles that provide information and promote the visibility of research being carried out on the subject.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
