To complement the Women's Heart Bus stages (an action carried out in partnership with local authorities) and to reduce gender inequalities in public health even faster, Agir pour le Cœur des Femmes wanted to set up, in 2024, the Women's Heart Day (JOCF). Last year, 18 health establishments and 22 Days were organized. The aim is simple: to bring prevention into healthcare establishments, multidisciplinary homes, EHPAD ... and thus accelerate the care of women and the implementation of associated, comprehensive and effective care pathways.
The goal: prevention rather than cure.
Each Women's Heart Day offers women, upon registration, a free and comprehensive 6-step cardio-gynecological screening, as well as a Health and Wellbeing Space open to all and made up of local partners, associations and prevention players. This space enables the public wishing to find out more, to benefit from time for exchange with experts on all subjects that can contribute to better health.
After the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region, which hosted 3 Journées du Cœur des Femmes last January, we set down in Nouméa on March 8. Over 200 women have already benefited from screening since the beginning of the year, and that's just the beginning! In fact, 50 Screening Days are scheduled across France, and we're aiming to screen almost 3,000 women as part of this local prevention event.
If you'd like to know the dates and establishments involved, you'll find the calendar here : https://www.agirpourlecoeurdesfemmes.com/journee-du-coeur-des-femmes.php
Agir pour le Cœur des Femmes would like to extend its heartfelt thanks to all the partners and donors without whom this national screening and prevention campaign would not be possible, and to all the national and local teams who are mobilizing.
If you would like to organize a Women's Heart Day at your facility, please send us an e-mail to secretariat@agirpourlecoeurdesfemmes.com.
On May 7, the CPTS des Hauts de l'Aisne, in partnership with the Mairie de la Capelle en Thiérache (Aisne), hosted "Women's Heart Day". As a reminder, cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death among women, with 200 women dying every day in France. Faced with this medical [...]
On the occasion of the Paris leg of the Bus du Coeur des Femmes, a team from LCI came to meet our teams and the women who attended to be screened for cardiovascular disease. The result: a 10-minute report highlighting the usefulness of the operation, the benevolence that reigns at each stage, the [...]
Unlike the Heart Bus, Women's Heart Day relies on the logistical and human resources of the care centers that host it. And to make up for the absence of the bus and its trailer, which are used to house and transport medical equipment along the route through France, Agir pour le Cœur des Femmes [...]
