Abstract
Patient education is considered to be a key role for podiatrists in the management of patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). However there is no evidence that identifies or supports the most appropriate strategies and content for its delivery. The aim of this study was to identify the nature and content of the current provision by podiatrists in relation to foot health education for people with RA.
