A significant finding from nursing-led women’s health initiatives reveals that community event formats increase women’s willingness to seek medical care by 34% compared to clinic-only settings.

The community event model demonstrates measurable success in encouraging women to engage proactively with their healthcare needs. Read the full article on GMJ Newsroom.
