Heart health begins at home and in the everyday care of the family doctor. Our care activities are designed to empower women to manage their own health with confidence, while also supporting their primary care providers with information and training. The Canadian Women’s Heart Health Centre is working to improve care both locally and nationally by developing personalized, one-on-one programs as well as digital educational tools.

Heart disease is the leading cause of premature death for women in Canada. When it comes to heart disease, women are under-studied, under-diagnosed, under-treated, under-supported and under-aware. Women themselves tend to under-estimate the risk of dying or becoming seriously unwell due to heart disease.

Treatment depends greatly on the type of heart disease you have. Whatever your situation, optimal treatment relies on a combination of efforts that may include medication, medical procedures and lifestyle changes.
Women@Heart has been carefully developed and you'll benefit the most if you attend each session. We do know that “life happens” and people are not always able to participate each week, but participating in as many sessions as possible will give you the most benefit.
Heart disease is the number one killer of women over 35 worldwide, accounting for more deaths every year than all cancers combined.
Quality of life is significantly lower for women than men after a cardiac event, and women who lack social support have a higher risk of fatal heart disease. The Women@Heart program is a peer support program led by women with heart disease, for women with heart disease that aims to create a caring environment for women to learn from each other and support one another on the road to recovery.
