Celebrating our Champions in Health Care

To mark International Women’s Day 2021 on March 8, and throughout the month of March, we are honouring the women who help lead Medavie in our mission to improve the wellbeing of Canadians.

Over the next four weeks, these portraits of women we hail as Champions in Health Care will share their stories of working on the front lines and behind the scenes — the obstacles they have overcome, the mentors that helped them along the way, the advancements in health care that excite them most and the changes they would still like to see.

International Women’s Day is a welcome opportunity to celebrate the achievements of women and call for action to accelerate gender equality by profiling some of the outstanding members of our team of 7,200 dedicated professionals.

We are committed to gender parity across our organization. It’s reflected in the composition of our team — approximately 70% of Medavie Blue Cross employees are women with nearly 60% holding leadership roles, while more than 50% of our Medavie Health Services employees are women.
