DESCRIPTION

What Patient Stories Teach Us About Implementing Systemic Change
This vital evidence-based book brings together patient stories and extensive research to reveal the extent of gender bias in healthcare and what can be done. Told with urgency and compassion, healthcare professionals everywhere will benefit from this opportunity to listen, reflect, and act.

"Gender bias in healthcare is not just persistent: its pervasive. Women's voices have been questioned, minimised, or outright dismissed, often with devastating, even fatal, consequences."

This trailblazing book shines a light on the uncomfortable truths we all need to confront within gender bias in healthcare. Centred on patient stories and lived experience, this comprehensively researched, evidence-based resource amplifies women's voices where they have too often been undermined.
From heart health and reproductive health, to eating disorders, birth trauma, and autism, Jinty Sheerin and Louise Hockings-Thompson invite readers, particularly healthcare professionals, to listen, reflect, and act.
This book is an urgent and compassionate call to action, and a vitally important step towards clinical excellence and women's health.
