Chronic Disease Day – A Time to Raise Awareness and Take Action

Chronic diseases are long-term health conditions that require ongoing medical attention. These include diabetes, hypertension, kidney disease, cardiovascular issues, and respiratory illnesses. While often manageable, chronic diseases are also responsible for the majority of health complications and deaths globally—especially in low- and middle-income countries.

July 10 marks Chronic Disease Day, a global reminder to take action in prevention, early diagnosis, and continuous care.

In Ghana and across Africa, increasing urbanization, dietary changes, and limited access to screening contribute to rising rates of chronic illness. However, awareness is growing. Communities, healthcare workers, and supply chains are all playing a crucial role in early detection and long-term management.

Managing chronic disease involves a mix of lifestyle choices, regular screening, medication adherence, and using reliable, high-quality medical products.

Let this Chronic Disease Day be a reminder that consistent care saves lives.
