Cardiology & Respirology
In 1996, we established North America's first cardiac prevention and rehabilitation program designed exclusively for women. Today, hospitals everywhere are looking to model their cardiac programs on ours.
Heart disease is the number one killer of women. And it's different for women than for men.
Our Women's Cardiovascular Health Initiative is a prevention program for women at high risk of heart disease, and a rehab program for women recovering from a heart problem who need to manage this chronic condition.
The program is a model for other health-care centres around the world.
