2023 Theme and Key Messages

The theme of UDAY 2023 is ACCESS TO CARE.

Care should be universal and accessible for all.

Living with urticaria can be incredibly challenging, with its unpredictable flare-ups and the impact it can have on our daily lives. It is crucial that everyone affected by this condition has equal access to the care they need to manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life.

key_message_gradient

Care should be timely and appropriate.

Living with urticaria brings its unique set of challenges, and receiving timely and appropriate care is essential for managing this condition effectively. Every person deserves access to prompt medical attention, accurate diagnoses, and tailored treatment plans to alleviate symptoms and enhance their quality of life.

key_message_gradient

Care should consider everything including mental health and comorbidities.

While urticaria can be debilitating and hard to treat, it is not just a physical disease and can impact our emotional well-being and often intertwines with other health conditions. To provide comprehensive care, it’s crucial to address the mental health aspects and consider comorbidities alongside the management of urticaria.

key_message_gradient

Care should be affordable.

Living with urticaria can place a significant financial burden on individuals and families, as medical expenses accumulate over time. Access to affordable care is not a luxury but a fundamental right that everyone should have, regardless of their financial circumstances.

key_message_gradient

Care should include support from your local patient group.

Living with urticaria you can feel lonely. That’s why patient groups play a vital role in providing a nurturing and understanding environment where you can find solace, information, and a sense of belonging. Patient groups are composed of individuals who understand the daily struggles of living with urticaria and can help each other.
