October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month

This month is a reminder to prioritize your breast health and squeeze in your mammogram!

If youโ€™re due for a mammogram, now is a great time to book as our locals sites celebrate Mammothon (mammograms all month long!)

A mammogram can help detect breast cancer early, when it may be easier to treat.

๐Ÿ“… Are you due for your mammogram?

If you are between the ages of 40 and 74, you can self-refer for your mammogram โ€” you do not need a requisition from your family doctor or nurse practitioner.

Mammograms are recommended every 2 years, so booking your screening is an important step in staying up to date with your breast health.

Finding a convenient location and booking an appointment doesnโ€™t have to be difficult.

Visit CheckForBreastCancer.ca to find a list of local mammogram sites in the area, explore your booking options, and book online where available.

๐Ÿ’— One appointment every two years can help you stay on top of your breast health.

Make breast health part of your healthcare routine this October.

The Central East Regional Cancer Program offers breast cancer screening throughout the region. Learn more.

Screening Saves Lives.

Cancer screening can help find some cancers before you notice symptoms. Finding cancer early can mean more treatment options and better outcomes.

Whether you're looking for breast, cervical or colorectal cancer screening, our Cancer Screening page can help you understand who is eligible, where to get screened in Northumberland, and what to do if you don't have a family doctor or nurse practitioner.

Learn more: ohtnorthumberland.ca/cancer-screening

If you don't have a primary care provider, you can still access cancer screening services. Visit our page to learn about your options, including support through Health Care Connect: ohtnorthumberland.ca/health-care-connect-811

Six hospital partners. One regional cancer system. One shared goal: better cancer care, closer to home. ๐Ÿ’™

This summer, the Central East Regional Cancer Program hit the road! ๐Ÿš—

We visited all six of our hospital partners across the region to celebrate what we have achieved together, identify new opportunities, and strengthen the partnerships that help deliver high-quality cancer care closer to home.

Working together, and with the guidance of Ontario Health โ€“ Cancer Care Ontario, our regional cancer system continues to improve access to screening, diagnosis and cancer care for people across Central East Ontario.

Some highlights from the past year include:
โญ Haliburton Highlands Health Services expanded both lung and breast cancer screening services, helping more people access screening closer to home.
โญ Ross Memorial Hospital became our regionโ€™s first expansion site for lung cancer screening.
โญ Campbellford Memorial Hospital achieved the best colonoscopy wait-time performance in the Central East region.
โญ Lakeridge Health achieved top performance in Ontario for referral-to-consult wait times for patients seeing an oncologist.
โญ Northumberland Hills Hospital continued to exceed provincial targets for the time from an abnormal mammogram to a breast cancer diagnosis.
โญ Peterborough Regional Health Centre consistently achieved provincial targets for colonoscopy wait times.

Behind every one of these achievements are dedicated healthcare teams working to make cancer screening, diagnosis and treatment more accessible and timely for the people we serve.

Thank you to all six of our hospital partners for your incredible work and your commitment to providing exceptional cancer care across our region. Together, we are building a stronger cancer system for our communities. ๐Ÿ’™
