Entrenched Health Care Practices and Complex Systems

Paper published in Australian Health Review, Vol. 30 (1), February 2006, page 7.

I have been asked to write about entrenched health care practices and why they make change so difficult in the health field. In this paper I would like to explore several aspects of this issue in Canada, the UK and Australia; examine some of its origins, look at how it manifests itself today and what might be done about it. I have written this short paper with others in the Clinamen Collaborative who will share the authorship with me.
