Chronic Disease Management
Chronic diseases are long lasting health conditions with persistent effects. Their medical, social and economic consequences can have a significant impact on quality of life. As such, optimal management of chronic disease is key to minimising the burden on individuals and their community. The Australian Institute of Health and Welfare has identified the following 10 chronic condition groups as being of most significance in terms of prevalence, impact on daily life, and most importantly that their impact is preventable and modifiable.
- Arthritis
- Asthma
- Back Pain
- Cancer
- Cardiovascular Disease
- Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
- Diabetes
- Chronic Kidney Disease
- Mental Health conditions
- Osteoporosis
Health4Community has a strong focus on high level chronic health care, through our CCPC program. By identifying the above (and other) chronic conditions early, and optimizing their management, future morbidity can be prevented or reduced, thus improving quality of life for patients for years to come.
