Fighting Chronic Disease – Supporting Lifelong Health for Bahamians
Chronic diseases like diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease are a heavy burden for many families in the Bahamas. Friends of PHA Bahamas is working to provide our hospitals with the resources they need to support patients facing these lifelong conditions.
The Reality of Chronic Disease in the Bahamas
Chronic diseases are the leading cause of death and disability in the Bahamas, and the need for specialized care has never been greater. Hospitals need tools and resources to manage these conditions effectively—whether that means providing access to dialysis machines, continuous glucose monitors, or education programs for patients and families.
By improving chronic disease management services, we empower individuals to take control of their health, leading to better quality of life and longer life expectancy.
