Background and Objectives healthy lifestyle is one of the important global concepts in the post-COVID-19 era, which can lead to maintaining and improving the health of societies.
This study aims to identify the components of a healthy lifestyle in the post-COVID-19 era in the Iranian health system.
Methods Theoretical sampling and a non-probability sampling technique were built on to conduct a qualitative field study. A grounded theory approach was adopted based on Strauss-Corbin's method, and semi-structured interviews were utilized to collect data. Theoretical saturation was reached by the end of the thirteenth interview. However, interviews continued until the fifteenth interview for further certainty. Faculty members and experts with doctoral degrees at Mashhad University of Medical Sciences comprised the statistical population from whom 15 eligible individuals were recruited. The hidden content of interviews was summarized, coded, and analyzed using MAXQDA software.
Results The investigation yielded 35 initial concepts, with six remaining after eliminating duplicates. The components of a healthy lifestyle in the post-COVID-19 era emerged from the intuitive opinions of experts, namely, social responsibility, resilience, the establishment of a lively spirit in society, economic development, smart management, and social health development.
Conclusion It is recommended that health and medical policymakers carry out scientific and practical planning with the aim of expanding and developing healthy lifestyle components during the post-COVID-19 era, maintaining and promoting community health, institutionalizing a healthy lifestyle during the post-COVID-19 era, and preparing society for possible similar pandemics.
