It is October, which means it is time to THINK PINK! According to the American Cancer Society, one in every 8 women will get breast cancer. Granite Falls Municipal Hospital wants to remind local patients that it offers digital mammograms, which can help screen for this disease.
Granite Falls Municipal Hospital & Manor through a generous grant from Prairie’s Edge Casino offers FREE mammograms to qualifying women. The screening program is a comprehensive screen program to increase the proportion of age-appropriate women who are screened for breast cancer by…
● Providing FREE screening to uninsured women
● Reaching out to women without regular healthcare providers
● Educating about screening importance
● Raising awareness among health professionals
● Must have no previous breast abnormalities or issues
● Must not have had a mammogram for at least 1 year
