Chronic Disease Management

At Donacarney Medical Centre, we are committed to providing comprehensive care for patients with long-term health conditions. Our chronic disease management services are designed to help you effectively manage and monitor chronic diseases such as Type 2 diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cardiovascular disease, and asthma.

Our Services Include:

  • Regular Reviews: Scheduled appointments with our team to monitor your condition, make necessary adjustments to your treatment, and help prevent complications.
  • Personalised Care Plans: Tailored plans created in collaboration with your GP or practice nurse, outlining steps to manage your condition and support available to you.
  • Support for Self-Management: Assistance with understanding and managing your condition, along with educational resources to empower you in your health journey.
  • Early Detection: Monitoring for new conditions or complications to address health issues proactively and effectively.
  • Convenient Care: Services are provided close to your home within your community, ensuring accessible and continuous care.

How It Works:

You are entitled to regular reviews throughout the year, which may include consultations with both a practice nurse and your GP. These reviews involve assessments, tests, and the development of a care plan to help you manage your condition.
