Do you live with chronic pain? The right management can reduce symptoms and improve your quality of life — and Bluenose Health can be part of your care plan. Here are a few tips for chronic disease management:

🩵 Manage stress — try activities you enjoy, like walking, yoga, or dancing.
🩵 Monitor blood pressure — stay on top of medications and lifestyle changes to lower risk of heart disease and stroke.
🩵 Control blood sugar — limit high-carb foods and learn what triggers spikes.
🩵 Lower cholesterol — choose heart-healthy foods to boost medication effectiveness and protect long-term health.

A chronic diagnosis can feel overwhelming — but you don’t have to face it alone. Our NPs at Bluenose Health are here to help you take control of your health and feel your best.

By 2030, Canada will be among the world’s “super-aged” countries, alongside Japan and Germany, with one in five people over 65. That’s more than double the number recorded in the 2021 census.

At the same time, we’re facing a serious gap: in the next 30 years, there will be 30% fewer family caregivers available, while 70% more older adults will need support. This imbalance is not sustainable — and it’s why preventative, accessible health care is more important than ever.

Here in Nova Scotia, access to care can already be challenging, with family doctor retirements and growing wait lists. At Bluenose Health, our goal is to help fill that gap by offering personalized, patient-centred care. Subscribers can book appointments easily, see us in person or by phone, and get the answers they need from providers who know them.

We’d love to support you and your family. Visit us in Halifax or learn more at www.bluenosehealth.com

💊 Medicines can be lifesavers — but only if you use them properly. Not following directions can increase the risk of side effects and other problems.

👉 Always follow the label on over-the-counter medicines, and your doctor or NP’s instructions for prescriptions.
👉 Only take supplements recommended by your provider. Many aren’t proven to help and some may interfere with other medications.
👉 Be sure to tell your NP about any herbs, supplements, or medicines you’re taking — prescription or not — so we can keep you safe and healthy. 🤝

Your health is our priority at Bluenose Health.
