Chronic Condition Care
What is Chronic Condition Care?
A chronic disease is a health condition that persists for a duration of six months or more, examples of which include asthma, arthritis, heart disease, cancer, and others. Such conditions have the potential to result in disability or even fatality. The provision of comprehensive medical attention to elderly individuals grappling with enduring or prolonged illnesses is what constitutes chronic condition care.
