Assignment:
Disease Trends and the Delivery of Health Care Services
Demographics and disease trends will influence health care delivery services in the future in many different ways. Not only will the current aging population affect the delivery of health care services because of its rapid growth, but also obesity. Obesity is one of the more serious problems facing our nation today, and will only get worse unless the implementation of programs to educate the public on the many health issues this condition can cause to prevent them from happening. Moreover, not only does the health care delivery system need to adapt in the future to provide quality care for the aging population and the many chronic health issues they will face along with affordable housing, but also obesity-related health issues as our nation faces these two serious problems.
