Royal College of Nursing demands better research on women's health
The Royal College of Nursing (RCN) has submitted evidence to a consultation run by the Department of Health and Social Care.
The RCN has raised concerns that female patients are not listened to which results in delayed diagnosis and poor patient outcomes.
It has also been suggested that there needs to be a bigger focus on designing services for women's needs and provide better support for women in the workplace, particularly in the healthcare sector.
