On Saturday, April 26th, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at Rhode Island Hospital, the Brown University Health Cancer and Community Health Institutes will host a special breast and cervical cancer screening, education, and outreach program for under- and un-insured women ages 21+. The event is free and open to the public; no medical insurance is required to participate.
Screening appointments to promote health and well-being will begin at 8:30 a.m. and include clinical breast exams, screening mammograms, pelvic exams, and Pap test. Most results will be available on the same day and arrangements for follow-up care will be provided, as needed.
In addition to these important preventative health screenings, patients will also be offered transportation, language interpretation, childcare, lunch, and parking at no additional charge. Educational resources and materials from community partners will be provided to ensure participants stay in their best health.
