Top 5 Chronic Diseases and In-Home Health Care

The National Council on Aging explains "every day, millions of people with chronic conditions struggle to manage their symptoms. Diabetes, arthritis, hypertension, lung disease, obesity and other chronic diseases can make life difficult to manage for millions of older adults, often forcing them to give up their independence. Older adults are disproportionately affected by chronic conditions, such as diabetes, arthritis, and heart disease. Nearly 95% percent have at least one chronic condition, and nearly 80% have two or more. Chronic diseases can limit a person’s ability to perform daily activities, cause them to lose their independence, and result in the need for institutional care, in-home caregivers, or other long-term services and supports."
