Abstract

The Diploma in Gender Equity of the Hospital Interzonal General de Agudos Prof. Dr. Ramón Carrillo seeks to approach health from a feminist and transfeminist perspective, especially in relation to National Law No. 25929, which guarantees the right to the Voluntary Interruption of Pregnancy (VTP). The hospital management faced challenges such as the conscientious objection of some obstetrics professionals. To overcome these obstacles, several actions were proposed, including training professionals in gender equity, expanding care services and improving communication with the community. An interdisciplinary Nurse Liaison team was established to facilitate access to abortion care and a registry system was implemented to monitor outcomes. These measures are expected to reduce barriers to access to sexual and reproductive health, empowering women and pregnant women to make informed decisions about their health. This intersectoral approach and specialized training in gender equity aims to close access gaps and improve the quality of care.
