Every day, Women’s Cardiovascular Healthcare Foundation shares its informational messages encouraging people to Alert, Anticipate and Act on the risks of cardiovascular events for women during the three key hormonal phases (contraception, pregnancy, menopause).

How does it work?
Health professionals are working every day to save lives by screening, treating and supporting women. They are cardiologists, vascular surgeons, general practitioners, gynecologists, obstetricians, emergency physicians, surgeons, and pharmacists. On a daily basis, they focus on improving gynecardiology healthcare at their practices in hospitals and clinics. They are helping to create Women’s Cardiovascular Healthcare Foundation centers throughout France. They write news updates and short articles, and share stories from their patients on our website and social channels (Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram and more). Business leaders volunteer their expertise to bring information and prevention messages to arenas beyond traditional healthcare pathways to reach women where they are in their daily lives.
