Public Health Nurses work with community groups, women and health professionals to educate women about breast health. The best defense against breast cancer is early diagnosis so that treatment can begin as soon as possible. For this reason we work closely with the Ontario Breast Screening Program (OBSP) to break down barriers for women 50 years of age and older who are seeking access to effective, quality screening at no charge.

 
It has been 1yr. I had a double mastectomy and I am doing fine. I had a very hard time to look at my self in the mirror while I had no hair but yet I was unable to wear a wig. I am 42yrs. old and I lost my mom at 44yrs. to cancer so I have been down this road befor. I live each day to the fullest and I appreciate the smallest things in my day. The doctors were great and I never had to wait for treatment or help. So be strong, happy, and positive each and everyday. Cancer treatment has come a long way.
