In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Atrium Medical Center will hold its annual “Brake for Breakfast” event from 6 to 10 a.m. Tuesday, Oct. 12, at the Middletown hospital, located at One Medical Center Drive. During the morning commute, motorists can drive through and pick up a free breakfast bag and helpful breast health information, while supplies last.
According to the National Cancer Institute, more than 40,000 women die annually from breast cancer. A woman’s chances for survival are good if detected early.
The goal of Brake for Breakfast is to encourage more women 40 and older to get an annual mammogram and tell their mothers, sisters, and daughters to do the same. This event is a fun way to show women that taking care of their health should be part of their daily routine. Commuters don’t have to leave their cars to participate.
Premier Health offers breast imaging services at multiple locations throughout the region. Additional services such as Genius™ 3-D mammography™, breast-specific MRI (including Fast Breast MRI), breast ultrasound, and image-guided biopsies performed with stereotactic technology, are also available. Premier Health also has a mobile mammography coach to provide mammograms on-the-go for busy women in Southwest Ohio.
