NSH honors National Women’s Health Week

 

North Shore Health honors National Women’s Health Week (and month)!

Beginning on Mother’s Day (May 12), the goal of the holiday is to empower women in such a way that they can make health a priority. It also equips women with the knowledge to help other women on their journeys to improve their health. With the efforts of individuals and healthcare workers, every woman can live a healthy and happy life. The theme for this year is “Women’s Health, Whole Health: Prevention, Care and Wellbeing.”

To improve your physical and mental health, you can:
• Get regular checkups, including a yearly well-woman exam. Talk to a healthcare provider about any health concerns you have.
• Get active.
• Eat a healthy and balanced diet.
• Prioritize your mental health and learn how to cope with stress.
• Practice healthy behaviors. Daily decisions influence your overall health.
