Having a chronic disease can be incredibly difficult for not only the patient, but also for their carers and family. As such, it is incredibly important to take steps to control and manage chronic disease in order to give the patient the greatest quality of life, as well as lessen the strain placed on carers and family.
What Diseases Are Chronic Diseases?
Chronic diseases are medical conditions that last over a year and require both constant attention and impact daily activity. Examples of chronic diseases include asthma, diabetes, and heart disease.
