Women's Health Care Strategies
 
Addressing Areas of Controversy and Need
 
There is a need for innovative approaches in Women's Health Care Provision in all areas of adolescent health, maternal and child health as well as in the management of the midlife and beyond. Confusion exists around many of these crucial areas of women's health.
 
Currently theWomanSpace concentrates on
 
Task Shifting of gynaecology and women's health and wellness services provided by nurse practitioners who have direct access to specialist gynaecologist input and opinion thus providing quality, safe, private and effective management of Women's Health issues from adolescence to the menopause.
 
Education and training of lay people to take control of their own health is being developed in the area of antenatal care and pilots will start to assess how this can contribute towards achieving Millenium Development Goals.
 



 

 Putting the Woman in Control
 
 
The end-user of all Women's Health products is the woman herself and her access to these products should always be appropriate to her needs and immediate environment and she should be able to make informed decisions about how she chooses to utilise these services.
