Morris Park Nursing and Rehabilitation Center takes part of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
- (1888PressRelease) October 25, 2014 - Bronx, New York - - This October, Morris Park Nursing and Rehabilitation Center takes part in bringing breast cancer awareness to the public eye. The faculty at Morris Park Nursing and Rehabilitation Center would like to address a common misconception amongst young women. Many young women, below the age of 35, believe that until they reach 40 years old, they do not need to worry about screening for possible breast cancer. However, many healthcare providers believe that the vigilance against breast cancer does not need to wait until a woman is 40 years old.
According to the American Cancer Society, women who are in their 20's and 30's should have clinical breast exams and should perform self-breast exams periodically. A clinical breast exam allows for early detection of breast cancer. Many doctors believe that conducting a self-breast exam even once a month is a good healthcare habit that every woman should acquire. By performing this exam, women will be able to detect changes such as lumps or swelling more easily.
"Here at Morris Park Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, we encourage all women to discuss the benefits of clinical breast exams and self-breast exams. Even women who are below the age of 40, should take necessary measures to ensure that possible breast cancer is detected in its earliest stages. We ask everyone to take this health concern seriously and discuss with your doctor the benefits and limitations of available breast exams," says Estelle Rono, Assistant Administrator at Morris Park Nursing and Rehabilitation Center.
