Through official relations with the World Health Organization (WHO), the WFC collaborates on various health-related units to promote chiropractic recognition and inclusion in health systems.
Focus on Patient Safety and Proactive Care
The WFC is intensifying efforts on patient safety, emphasizing the responsibility of all healthcare professions to prioritize patient well-being. By proactively addressing potential risks and leveraging data-driven biomechanical analysis, the aim is to deliver safe and effective care. This initiative underscores the significance of evidence-backed practices and maintaining high-quality standards in healthcare.
Contribution to Healthy Aging and Mobility
Amidst the global rise in the geriatric population, chiropractors play a crucial role in enhancing healthy aging and mobility. Addressing issues like low back pain and disability in older adults, chiropractic interventions enable individuals to lead active and independent lives. By focusing on enhancing mobility and function, chiropractors can combat isolation and loneliness, promoting overall well-being in the aging population.
