As this past Wednesday was International Women’s Day, I felt it was an opportune time to highlight the importance of women’s health.

We are very fortunate to have the Lois Hole Hospital for Women, which is dedicated to women’s health and wellness. It offers specialized services for women under one roof, improving accessibility and quality care for all those who walk through its doors.

Unfortunately, there are some taboos around women’s health that can prevent women from reaching out for the care they need.

Joining the AHS Vlog to tell us more about the importance of women’s health and how we can address these taboos are:

• Sharlene Rutherford, President and CEO of the Royal Alexandra Hospital Foundation
• Dr. Jane Schulz, Professor and Chair Dept Obstetrics and Gynecology, Alberta Women's Health Foundation Endowed Chair, Lois Hole Hospital for Women
