Abstract
Prior health promotion behavior, perceived health status, perceived benefits of health promoting behaviors,
situational factors, external cues to action, perceive definition of health, incomes, perceived self-efficacy, perceived
control of health, and importance of health were the factors significantly predicting health promotion behavior of
patients with chronic illness. These factors could explain 47.6% of the variance in health promotion behavior of
patients with chronic illness. There were four major strategies to enhance health promotion behavior of patients with
chronic illness in Chainat province: encouraging health promotion behavior of the patients, promoting family role as
family-based health promotion; facilitating role of village health volunteers as an empowerment home visit, and the
development of proactive public health services in the community.
