Case Summary

  • Chronic diseases, also known as non-communicable diseases (NCDs), are long-lasting conditions that are not transmitted from person to person. These diseases, such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, cancers, and chronic respiratory diseases, persist over time and can lead to residual disability, requiring special training and supervision for the affected individuals.
