The results of our study highlight the need for developing interventions that respond to concerns from GPs about their capability to deliver PCC when faced with time constraints.
When faced with financial constraints, patients may use tactics including: taking medication less often than recommended, choosing the most "important" medication to pay for, sharing pills with other people, drawing on personal capabilities and social networks, and asking their doctor for help [ 18, 50, 68, 89, 92].

When faced with ICU capacity constraints, however, hospitals have a limited number of options.

This paper explores whether the CHAT exercise can successfully be used with cancer patients and families to reveal their perspectives in a way that can inform policy questions about what health care benefit options Medicare beneficiaries and their family members would prefer when faced with a resource constraint.

So many engineers and executives demonstrate courage, tenacity and creativity when faced with regulation or resource constraint in the pipeline.
Teachers with higher levels of self-efficacy challenge themselves to reach more difficult goals, will persist when faced with obstacles, are less constraint by doubt, and will thus arrive more often at satisfying solutions (Bandura, 1993; Caprara et al. 2008; Schwarzer and Hallum, 2008).
When faced with a hard budget constraint, there is an incentive to shift costs by proposing service expansions for which other programme budgets would foot the bill or attempt to identify savings in other programmes with the aim of relaxing the budget constraint.
