Women’s health and chiropractic: Educational audit and development of core competencies

The study provided insight into the WH curriculum offered at participating chiropractic colleges. This resulted in a set of 10 domains and 62 core competencies to inform curricula that may be used by chiropractic training programs to enhance future chiropractors' knowledge and skills around WH across the lifespan and for post-graduate courses to ensure that proficiency may continue to advance in practice. These competencies go beyond women's reproductive health to include less considered milestones throughout the lifespan, including that gender is a social determinant of health, and the biological impact of social conditions, such as age in this population.
