Chronic Disease Management and Prevention 
The Lifescripts initiative provides general practice with tools and skills to help patients address the main lifestyle risk factors for chronic disease: smoking; poor nutrition; alcohol misuse; physical inactivity; and unhealthy weight. The initiative assists with the provision of tailored advice to patients on modifying their lifestyle.
The Division can assist practices to take up the Lifescripts program through organised practice visits and to provide its general practices with tools and resources to assist patients to make healthier lifestyle choices.
