A cause that we have felt ours since the then Minister of Health Beatrice Lorenzin established the day dedicated to women’s health and always honored from there. The hospitals of the Bollino Rosa network participating in the initiative offer a week of free services such as visits, telephone consultations, remote events and interviews, info points and distribution of information material for bring the female population closer to increasingly early diagnoses and personalized treatment paths“.

Often the symptoms of diseases also have gender differences
The network intends to promote, even within hospitals, a “gender” approach in the definition and strategic planning of clinical care services, which is essential to guarantee the right to health not only of women but also of men. In fact, we know that for various diseases even the symptoms are different depending on the gender. An example above all, those concerning cardiovascular diseases.
