One last Wednesday in pink! đź’—

Throughout October, our Harris and Swain teams have come together for 'On Wednesdays We Wear Pink', showing their support for Breast Cancer Awareness Month and the many individuals and families whose lives have been touched by breast cancer.

Beyond the pink outfits and team photos, this month has given us a meaningful opportunity to reinforce a message that can truly make a difference: early detection matters. Staying informed, knowing your personal risk, and keeping up with recommended breast cancer screenings are important steps toward protecting your health.

As we close out this year's celebration, we want to thank our teams for bringing such wonderful energy to each Wednesday and helping us spread a message that extends far beyond October.

Here's to continuing the conversation, supporting one another, and making breast health a priority all year long! đź’•

đź’— Don't let Breast Cancer Awareness Month end without taking action! If it's time for your mammogram, schedule your screening with Harris Regional Hospital. Early detection can make all the difference, and our team is here to help you take that next step. Visit MyHarrisRegional.com/breast-health to learn more.

A lump is not the only possible sign of breast cancer. Changes such as swelling, skin dimpling, discharge, redness, pain or a change in breast size or shape are worth discussing with a healthcare provider. Knowing what is normal for you can make it easier to notice a change. If something feels different, start the conversation.
