This week I was reading about the rates of chronic health disease burden in the USA and globally. The numbers and costs continue to be startling. "Ninety percent of the nation's $4.5 trillion in annual health care expenditures are for people with chronic and mental health conditions. Interventions to prevent and manage these diseases can have significant health and economic benefits." Source- https://lnkd.in/eMBvfnZy. The global burden is even higher - "The estimated cost of chronic disease is expected to reach $47 trillion worldwide by 2030. Individual lifestyle and behaviors and community factors play important roles in the development and management of chronic diseases." Source- https://lnkd.in/eHanVZFp ✨ As a public health care practitioner, I continue to promote prevention for our communities. I encourage each of us to get our preventative health care screenings including dental, eye, and any other care you are seeking. Take good care!!! ✨✨✨ #preventativehealth #publichealth #communityhealth #globalhealth

Parkinson’s Disease in Women: Symptoms and Experiences Parkinson's disease, often portrayed through the trembling hands of an elderly man, has long suffered from a narrow public image.

The Loneliness Epidemic and the Core Value of Membership. Associations play an essential role bringing people together. The World Health Organization (WHO) has warned that loneliness could soon become a global epidemic, which could lead to increased rates of dementia, heart disease, stroke and premature death. In this post to the Member365 site, I encourage Associations to highlight the work they do in creating communities, and helping individuals recognize what they have in common with others, while improving mental, and physical, health outcomes. #member365 #loneliness #lonelinessepidemic #associations
