Women's Heart Health Days in Vichy

136 women underwent a comprehensive six-step cardiovascular screening, and 21 of them received appropriate medical follow-up.

Women's Heart Health Days in Vichy

A look back at the two “Women’s Heart Days” events held in Vichy on April 21 and 22, coordinated by the Agora Club in partnership with the CPTS Vichy Val D’Allier, the City of Vichy, and Vichy Communauté, to raise awareness, take preventive action, and encourage women to take time for themselves.

Thirty healthcare professionals offered a six-step screening to 136 women. Twenty-one women required follow-up medical care.

This key prevention initiative for women in the region helped open up a dialogue about cardiovascular risks, which remain largely overlooked despite being one of the leading causes of female mortality.

Thank you to Club @AGORA Vichy 67 for its involvement. Thank you to E. Pierre and B. Terrie for their coverage.
