How can I help as a health professional?

There are many ways to facilitate awareness and support of the Heart Health Charter. Use the tabs on the left to learn specific steps you can take to do your part in this process. Your support is vital.

As a health care professional, you can provide visibility for the Charter and the need to address cardiovascular disease at a local, regional, national and European level. The Charter stresses the need for increased public awareness of the risk factors associated with CVD and the responsibility of both the individual and political bodies to address these risks.

Testimonials

"It is of utmost importance that the health professions develop a gender sensitive approach and that the relevant teaching institutions begin to integrate a gender perspective into their curricula. The different health needs of women need to be met in an equitable manner in prevention, treatment and care services."
