They ensure women have equitable access to the highest quality healthcare when, where, and how they need it. Our healthcare system is failing mature women. Frequently unheard, dismissed, and overlooked by medical professionals, mature women are often left to navigate complex challenges associated with menopause without the support they need. To ensure that all women, no matter their age, have access to the support they need, BC Women’s Health Foundation has launched the Mature Women’s Health Campaign. This campaign will lead research that is directly tied to real-time patient care. The outcome will be improved treatment options, enhanced care and better experiences for women as they age.
