This project aims to provide the first in-depth coordinated critical public health examination of an unregulated and 'covert' area of health and treatment seeking behaviour - complementary self-medication (CAM SM) use in later life. It will focus on healthy ageing and living with chronic illness and draw upon fieldwork with Indigenous, non-Indigenous and culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities. This project aims to identify the challenges of, and possibilities for, 'covert' CAM SM use in later life. It will provide an evidence-base to inform safe, effective care and policy for older Australians and generate novel analyses to provide significant advances and new directions for public health scholarship with regards to chronic illness and community health in later life.
