Editor, OBSERVER:
I would like to thank the WCA Hospital Center, the Imaging & Medical at WCA and the Wellness Program for hosting "Shades of Pink," a breast health education and screening event at the hospital in September and November.
Free clinical breast exams were given to 52 women by Debbie Daniels, NP, from Jamestown Primary Care. Women were encouraged to schedule their mammograms at that time.
Women without health insurance were referred to the Chautauqua County Cancer Services Program a program of the Chautauqua County Health Department that provides free mammograms to women ages 40 and older.
For anyone who would like information about free screenings, to volunteer in awareness campaigns or to make a donation, please call the Cancer Services Program of Chautauqua County at 1-800-506-9185.
HEATHER BUCK,
Mayville
