Chronic Health Conditions

Chronic health conditions refer to long-lasting diseases or conditions that persist for a year or more, requiring ongoing management and often affecting daily life. These conditions, which include heart disease, diabetes, asthma, and arthritis, can have a profound impact on individuals, families, and communities, leading to reduced quality of life, disability, and increased healthcare costs. In various counties, we assess these conditions' prevalence, associated risk factors, healthcare access, and outcomes, to better understand their impact and identify areas for intervention. By monitoring trends in chronic health conditions, we can improve public health strategies, allocate resources effectively, and support those living with these conditions.
