Ladies should take a lead role in healthcare



As we celebrated Global Women's Day last week, it is an opportune period to consider the significant impact that women bring to healthcare through our distinct perspectives and experiences, both as sufferers and healthcare professionals, places I feel are necessary in creating a more inclusive and responsive healthcare system that really works for us all.


With over 50% of our population here in the UAE being ladies, and with the majority of healthcare decisions being made by ladies on behalf of their families, outstanding strides have been made in recent years to motivate women in healthcare, both through increasing their professional opportunities in this flourishing strategic sector, and by making it convenient for them to access necessary healthcare services. A prosperous society requires strong healthcare as its foundation, and women must be at the heart of this in order to best relate to society's healthcare requirements and deliver the most effective systems possible.
