Chronic Disease Management - System Solutions for Sustainability
28-Jan-2011 - 28-Jan-2011
Chronic Disease Management: System Solutions for SustainabilityPresented by Ontario Hospital Association
Toronto, Ontario
Chronic disease is widely recognized as the major cause of world-wide death and disability. In Ontario, a large and growing number of people live with one and commonly two or more chronic conditions. Poorly managed or untreated conditions pre-dispose individuals to additional chronic illness. The health and economic burden of chronic disease is high—to individuals, health systems and the economy.
The OHA in partnership with the Ontario Association of Community Care Access Centres, the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care, Cancer Care Ontario and the Ontario College of Family Physicians is hosting this conference which will offer participants practical solutions to the chronic disease challenge for today and tomorrow through a collaborative systemic approach which is applicable both locally and provincially.
