INOC – Istituto Nazionale Oncologico Candiolo has been awarded 3 Pink Stamps by the Onda ETS Foundation for the biennium 2026-2027, the highest award given to hospitals that stand out for their attention to women’s health and the quality of services dedicated to women.

The result confirms the Institute’s ongoing commitment to ensuring increasingly personalized, equitable and gender-sensitive prevention, diagnosis, treatment and care pathways at all stages of life.

What are the Pink Stamps

The Pink Stamps are an initiative of the Onda ETS Foundation that aims to highlight Italian healthcare facilities committed to the promotion of gender medicine. The award is given on the basis of a thorough evaluation that takes into account, among other aspects:

• Quality and appropriateness of clinical services dedicated to major women’s diseases;
• Presence of multidisciplinary diagnostic-therapeutic pathways;
• Attention to reception, information and continuity of care;
• support services and prevention and awareness initiatives.

The awarding of 3 Pink Stamps represents the highest level of the program and identifies health facilities that offer organizational and clinical excellence geared toward women’s health needs.

A recognition that looks to the future

The awarding of the Pink Stamps for the two-year period 2026-2027 reinforces INOC’s role as a national reference point in oncology care and research, confirming the Institute’s focus not only on scientific innovation, but also on quality of care and person-centeredness.

An award that renews INOC’s commitment to promoting healthcare that is increasingly inclusive, personalized and attentive to women’s needs.
