The law modernizing the healthcare system

Summary:

The law modernizing the healthcare system was a milestone in the promotion of gender equality by extending the functions of midwives. By allowing these professionals to perform medicated abortions, it broke down institutional and societal barriers, recognizing their medical expertise and key role in reproductive health. This advance was much more than a simple extension of skills: it represented a step towards professional equality, affirming that the value of a profession should not be restricted by gender stereotypes. By broadening the scope of midwifery, this law has encouraged a more balanced redistribution of reproductive health services, offering women more fluid and rapid access to essential care. This development has demonstrated the ability of healthcare policies to promote inclusion and equity by recognizing professional skills without gender discrimination, helping to create a fairer, more accessible healthcare system for all.
