Access to healthcare is good. Equal access is better. Let's talk about how we can support rural healthcare organizations in offering people hours away from major urban areas the same standard of care as anyone. Equal Healthcare for All™ is central to how we do business; at next week's 50th Annual #Arizona Rural Health Conference, ask us about programs like Software Upgrades for Life, just one unique example of how we make it happen. #healthcare #PassionForChange https://lnkd.in/gQqfpDFf

"Urgent global action is required to improve the screening, diagnosis and treatment journey for women with cardiovascular disease." - Global Heart Hub This clear and simple message from the Global Heart Hub aptly reflects the dark and complex reality that heart disease, as the LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH for women remains UNDERSTUDIED, UNDERDIAGNOSED, and UNDERTREATED. The truth is, most heart diseases can be managed quite well if detected early. Many patients can go on to enjoy quality of life if their condition is treated and well-managed. Things can and should be better. An important aspect to increasing early detection, preventing missed diagnosis and improving standards of care is to hear from patients themselves and respecting their voice and input in the process. This latest report published by the Global Heart Hub - a patient-led initiative that brought together experts from 15 countries - marks an important milestone in patient-led collaborative research. No doubt a useful resource and must-read for anyone interested in advancing women's heart health. A big shoutout to all the contributors including Australia's own Her Heart Australia and hearts4heart 👏🏼 For more information and to download a copy of the report, visit: https://lnkd.in/g2kgubhf #WomensHeartHealth #WomensHealth #CVD #GHH
