However, a gap would exist between the GPs\u2019 knowledge and their practices about HP. The aims of our study were to explore GPs\u2019 perceptions, knowledge, and practices in Morocco about HP and identify their barriers and needs to best practice HP actions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>MATERIALS AND METHODS:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A qualitative case study was conducted among GPs, via semi-structured interviews following an interview guide. Purposive and snowball sampling were used to select our sample. It contained four themes, perceptions, practices, barriers and needs, and proposals for improvement. The interviews were recorded and then transcribed. Thematic content data analysis was done manually. Favorable ethical approval was obtained from the local ethics committee.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>RESULTS:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Fourteen GPs participated in this study. The sex ratio was at one. GPs\u2019 practices were focused on the biomedical model with wide confusion of HP with prevention and therapeutic education. Their roles in HP were considered paramount. The number of patients during consultations, structures\u2019 care, and knowledge were the main barriers. The main cited needs were material resources and HP training.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CONCLUSION:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Our study has made it possible to make an inventory of the practice of HP in Morocco. Participants\u2019 practices were based on the curative aspect. There is a crucial need to implement continuing and contextualized training for general practitioners to strengthen their skills in HP. This training will help to succeed in the health-promoting hospital\u2019s strategy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/jehp.jehp_157_23","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,26]],"date-time":"2024-03-26T09:02:48Z","timestamp":1711443768000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["The views of general practitioners in Morocco about health promotion at the primary health care services: Qualitative study"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Ouassim","family":"Mansoury","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Public Health, Epidemiology and Community Medicine, Laboratory of Biosciences and Health, Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy, Cadi Ayyad University, Marrakesh, Morocco"},{"name":"Clinical Research Service, Mohammed VI University Hospital Centre, Marrakesh, Morocco"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hamza","family":"Kachkhouch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy, University Cadi Ayyad, Marrakesh, Morocco"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Samira","family":"Essoli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Public Health, Epidemiology and Community Medicine, Laboratory of Biosciences and Health, Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy, Cadi Ayyad University, Marrakesh, Morocco"},{"name":"Clinical Research Service, Mohammed VI University Hospital Centre, Marrakesh, Morocco"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Adil","family":"Mansouri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Public Health, Epidemiology and Community Medicine, Laboratory of Biosciences and Health, Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy, Cadi Ayyad University, Marrakesh, Morocco"},{"name":"Clinical Research Service, Mohammed VI University Hospital Centre, Marrakesh, Morocco"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Murtada","family":"Jabbar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biosciences and Health Laboratory, Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy, Cadi Ayyad University, Marrakesh, Morocco"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Latifa","family":"Adarmouch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Public Health, Epidemiology and Community Medicine, Laboratory of Biosciences and Health, Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy, Cadi Ayyad University, Marrakesh, Morocco"},{"name":"Clinical Research Service, Mohammed VI University Hospital Centre, Marrakesh, Morocco"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohamed","family":"Amine","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Public Health, Epidemiology and Community Medicine, Laboratory of Biosciences and Health, Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy, Cadi Ayyad University, Marrakesh, Morocco"},{"name":"Clinical Research Service, Mohammed VI University Hospital Centre, Marrakesh, Morocco"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Majda","family":"Sebbani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Public Health, Epidemiology and Community Medicine, Laboratory of Biosciences and Health, Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy, Cadi Ayyad University, Marrakesh, Morocco"},{"name":"Clinical Research Service, Mohammed VI University Hospital Centre, Marrakesh, Morocco"},{"name":"Unit of Development and Research in Medical Education (UDREM), Faculty of Medicine, University of Geneva, Geneva, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"R1-20240829","article-title":"National Health Service Reorganisation Act 1973 Chapter 32"},{"key":"R2-20240829","first-page":"3","article-title":"D\u00e9claration d\u2019Alma-Ata"},{"key":"R3-20240829","article-title":"Ottawa charter for health promotion","year":"1986"},{"key":"R4-20240829","article-title":"Promosant\u00e9.
