Chronic diseases refer to long-term health issues that progress over time and require continuous management to keep them in check. While chronic diseases cannot be cured, they can be controlled and managed with the right treatment plan. Chronic Disease Management involves continuous planning and management to ensure the disease does not get out of control.

We understand that everything may feel overwhelming at first, which is why we are here to guide you through each step of the way. Managing your health will be continuous as we work towards enhancing your self-management behaviours and learning to be responsible for your health.

Chronic Disease Management involves encouraging patients to learn about their condition, make healthy lifestyle changes, and take responsibility for their health. Awareness is important to understand the proper treatments and interventions, so we aim to improve your health literacy and educate you on preventative measures for your disease. This way, you can better understand your symptoms and learn how to navigate them.
Planning and coordination
Creating a health care plan specific to each patient is important since every person’s condition and circumstances will differ. Efforts have to be tailored to fit each patient’s situation to ensure that their condition is managed properly. As such, constant monitoring is also an integral part of the process. Having routine check-ups will be essential to follow up on your progress and see if your current health plan is working.
