10 Women in History Who Revolutionized Healthcare
March is Women’s History Month, a time to remember the trailblazing women in history who redefined medicine for women today. These women challenged the status quo of their time and became some of the most influential individuals in medical history. From revolutionizing hygiene practices in hospitals to taking their care directly to patients, these women have inspired generations of innovators.
