Breast and Cervical Health Program
Working in partnership with women in southern Alberta
We believe:
- That women needing breast assessment require prompt, accurate diagnosis and treatment of breast health problems.
- That women are empowered in decision making by receiving education and emotional support as they work through this process.
- That using the expertise of a multidisciplinary team will provide comprehensive care for women and their families.
- That it is important to involve your family doctor throughout this process
Awards
Awards will be given to the Top 3 finisher's in each age category. Awards will be unique pottery created by Bea Joevanazzo, a local artist. Bea's art work can be viewed at the Southern Alberta Art Gallery.
