Tip 1: Access Reliable Information

Education is the cornerstone of managing sickle cell disease effectively. Access reliable sources of information, such as healthcare providers, reputable websites, and patient advocacy organizations. These sources can provide accurate and up-to-date information about the condition, treatment options, and available resources.

Get information from people you trust or sources that have no economic interest in what they are telling you. A great source is the CDC or Arizona Department of Health for examples. Another is this app, created by people that make sure their content is validated or evidenced based.
