Closing the Gap: Addressing Gender Inequities in Healthcare

Learn more about women health here

Regardless of fast breakthroughs in the field of medicine, the demands and physiology of ladies and women continue to be neglected within the healthcare system. Ladies have actually been excluded from study and are underserved in domains such as heart health and wellness. This Health Gap impacts the wellness and lifestyle of all females, specifically those in marginalized neighborhoods. This video clip highlights the health care injustices faced by females all over the world, and proposes actions that can be taken by pupils, medical care specialists, and people to close the Gender Health Void.

This video was made by McMaster Demystifying Medication trainees Susanna MacLeod, Guneet Mahal, and Gursharan Mann.
