Each year in October, the color pink is used to symbolize international support for women with breast cancer and breast cancer awareness. All month long in honor of this cause, Medisys Health Network will proudly advocate and support the Pink campaign.
The network partnered with media companies such as Community News Group to promote their efforts in bringing awareness to breast cancer. Medisys Health Network participated as one of the major sponsors of the media group’s pink paper edition campaign. The media news group known for several publications such as the Times Ledger and the Bayside Times printed a special October edition on pink paper. Medisys also contributed a full page article which educated readers about risk factors, early detection; which is considered the best defense against breast cancer and treatment options.
Our approach in the fight against breast cancer is to facilitate the communities served by Flushing Hospital Medical Center and Jamaica Hospital Medical Center by operating early detection programs, breast cancer screening and mammography services. We ask that you join our efforts in raising awareness by educating those around you about this disease and reminding them that early detection is the best defense against breast cancer.
