Introduction to the Issue
The topic of Female Genital Mutilation is often a issue that is not discussed, or well known. The purpose of this website and project is to shed some light on this issue. As health care providers it was not an issue we were well aware of until doing this project. However after reading the literature and spending time investigating this issue we realized the importance and relevance to both our child health nursing and our practice in general.
With many Canadians citizens originating from various parts of the world there is a high possibility we will be taking care of a patient affected by female genital mutilation at some point in our practice. The aim of this website is to provide other health care providers with information and ways to best help those affected.
