This initiative aims to encourage prevention and early detection.

Cardiovascular diseases continue to affect an increasing number of women, including at increasingly younger ages. It is one of the main causes of death, causing 200 deaths daily in France and up to 76,000 each year. It is essential to note that 80% of these deaths might be prevented with appropriate prevention measures.

Accessible upon registration, the bus offers a comprehensive health journey supervised by a team of volunteer health professionals. Participants will benefit from varied consultations, ranging from blood pressure measurement to gynecological interviews. Also going through blood sugar and cholesterol tests. This comprehensive screening allows rapid and appropriate management of identified risk factors.

Beyond screening, it aims to raise women’s awareness of the importance of a healthy lifestyle. Encourage women and young women to take charge of their cardiovascular and gynecological health.

Around the Bus, a health village will offer information and resources on various health topics. Visitors will be able to interact with local associations.
