Lifestyle Medicine and Foreign Recommendations Aimed at Motivating Medical Staff to Lead a Healthy Lifestyle

Abstract

The World Health Organization considers the implementation of healthy lifestyle recommendations a basic healthcare service and has already developed the necessary principles and recommendations. Currently, lifestyle medicine is actively developing abroad, and being defined as part of preventive medicine. In relation to the methodology of lifestyle medicine for medical staff, the principles of a healthy lifestyle are of particular importance abroad, as every medical staff, be it a doctor or a nurse, should set a good example for their patients and the general population. The principles of lifestyle medicine dictate that health professionals’ adherence to a healthy lifestyle is crucial since every health worker, whether a doctor or a nurse, should set a positive example for their patients and the general public.
