The Southern Brittany Hospital Group (GHBS) is organizing, Wednesday October 9, 2024, a half-day of events around breast cancer as part of Pink October.
The idea is to give prevention advice but also to support and inform on screening, coordination of care, possible sports, dietary and well-being support.
Self-examination busts
Thus, GHBS caregivers will be present in the hall of the Scorff hospital, in Lorient (Morbihan), from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m., including doctors, nurses, dieticians, as well as members of associations such as League against cancer, Ysaé, Rêves de clown, Nost’en Roz, Morganez, riposte, The pink touch, You are super and Little gifts of happiness.
Self-palpation busts will be made available to learn the actions to perform to detect possible anomalies yourself.
Regardless of age, self-examination is the essential gesture for early detection, allowing referral to a healthcare professional if there is the slightest doubt. (attending doctor, gynecologist, midwife, etc.)
recalls the GHBS in a press release.
