Pennyrile District Health Department is looking to check out a few women.
The
regional health department that operates the local health center is
targeting women ages 21 to 64 for breast and cervical cancer screenings
next week. The goal through the Kentucky Women’s Screening Program is to
detect the two cancers early and increase the odds of beating the
disease.
The health screenings will take place
Wednesday at Crittenden County Health Center off Industrial Drive in
Marion. All participants will receive a gift basket, and those who
complete a survey will be entered into a drawing to win a $100 gas card.
The same screenings and incentives will be offered today at Livingston County Health Center in Smithland.
