One in four women has a pelvic floor disorder, yet most go untreated due to low awareness, social stigma, and limited access to pelvic floor physical therapists. As a result, it takes an average of over six years to receive care.
With 70% of our healthcare workforce being female, pelvic floor disorders pose a significant risk to hospitals. HR professionals need to address women’s pelvic health to keep experienced clinicians and nurses productive and on the job.
