Access is Not Enough: the Redesigning Effective aNd Equitable systems of care for Women’s heart-brain recovery (RENEW)

Heart disease and stroke are major causes of illness among women in Canada, yet many women do not fully benefit from existing cardiac and stroke rehabilitation programs. Women are less likely than men to be referred to rehabilitation, but even when they attend, current rehabilitation care delivery systems are not designed to consider women’s unique biological, mental health, and social needs that critically impact recovery trajectories. The RENEW Network was created to address these gaps and to re-design heart and brain rehabilitation to better meet the needs of women from diverse backgrounds across Canada.
