Improving the lives of people with musculoskeletal conditions

Date
2014
Abstract
Musculoskeletal conditions* (MSCs) are the primary cause of work absence in Ireland with an estimated direct cost to the economy of €750 million (Arthritis Ireland 2009). The management of MSCs focuses on keeping people at work and participating in society. Management of MSCs is often hindered by beliefs and practices of healthcare professionals and the public, which are not in line with best evidence.
