Health Status: Chronic Diseases
One of the biggest challenges to achieving healthy communities is the prevention and management of chronic conditions,
especially with an aging British Columbian population. Chronic diseases are diseases that are persistent and generally
slow in progression, such as diabetes, chronic respiratory illnesses, high blood pressure, and heart disease. Chronic
conditions can result from a combination of genetics, lifestyle practices, and environmental risks. The section below
provides a glimpse into the rates of major chronic diseases in the CHSA. This section also includes comparisons to the
health status of other CHSAs within the same Local Health Area.
Cancer
Cancer is the leading cause of death
in Canada. About half of all cancers may be prevented through factors such as healthy eating, physical activity, avoiding
harmful use of substances such as tobacco, and reduced sun exposure.[53]

Crude Incidence and Mortality Rates of Cancer across Neighbouring CHSAs
The following section shows the crude incidence and mortality rates of cancers in all CHSAs within their Local Health Area.
If any Local Health Area has only one CHSA, there will be only one bar shown in the chart for that CHSA.

Heart and Circulatory Illness
Cardiovascular diseases are conditions that affect the heart and blood vessels. Examples of cardiovascular disease include heart attacks,
strokes, heart failure, and ischemic heart disease. High blood pressure, also called hypertension, increases the risk of a number of
chronic conditions including diabetes and other cardiovascular diseases.

Chronic Respiratory Illness
Asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) are two common chronic respiratory diseases with significant impacts on health and wellbeing.
Asthma often occurs in those with a genetic predisposition to the illness, though not always. This condition can
be caused by allergens in the environment, tobacco smoke, exposures in the workplace, or air pollution. COPD is
often caused by smoking but can also be caused or worsened by workplace exposures.

Age-Standardized Incidence and Prevalence Rates of Chronic Diseases across Neighbouring CHSAs
The following section shows the age-standardized prevalence and incidence rates for chronic diseases in all CHSAs within their Local Health
Area. Some Local Health Areas have one CHSA and some have more than one. If a data bar is absent in the chart, the rate was calculated based
on a small number of people. To protect the privacy and confidentiality of the individuals, such rates are not released publicly as per the
BCCDC policy. Specific age-standardized incidence and prevalence rates for chronic disease are presented in Comparison to provincial and
regional health authority averages – Chronic disease.
