When I rang 2020 in, my last thought was to start a blog focused on building health literacy and providing evidence-based health information for the general public. In fact, I was one of many looking for a position in public health or healthcare. A place where I could make a difference, have “normal” business hours, and move from the Entrepreneur I was to a more “traditional” corporate role. Well, 2020 happened and, more importantly, COVID-19. I noticed a lot of information about the disease being release. This was not unusual with COVID being new, but I thought most of the information the public was getting was not complete and hard to understand. I even felt there was a great deal of fear associated with the information. My assessment was confirmed when my phone began to ring, and numerous questions and an almost panic tone came from people I regarded as level-headed and intelligent. With all the questions and researching regularly, TheHealthChronicle.com was born. Not only would it include infectious disease information, but it would be a site to promote health literacy and, most importantly, give individuals the confidence to become their own best patient advocate. I hope that TheHealthChronicle.com will be a resource to further conversation and partnerships with individuals and their healthcare practitioners, whereas; disease prevention and healthier living are achieved. Our Mission: To bring quality evidence-based information to the general population in an easy-to-read format covering numerous health and wellness topics. Our final goal is to provide resources for further research and growth and encourage confidence in the individual’s ability to become their own health advocate; thus, developing proactive partnerships with their healthcare providers.
