Pink October

Understand the importance of breast cancer prevention by identifying risk factors, screening methods and best practices to adopt.

Conference and webinar on the breast cancer prevention in company

Every year in France, more than 61,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer, either 1 in 8 women during their lifetime (source INCa). If detected early, this cancer is cured in 9 out of 10 cases. However, there are still many barriers to screening, particularly in the workplace.

To raise awareness among your teams about this major public health issue, Medisur is offering a comprehensive awareness program for Pink October.

Content of the Pink October at Work intervention:

1. Define breast cancer and understand breast anatomy

To provide an educational explanation of how the breast works, the different forms of breast cancer, and the mechanisms of disease progression. Supported by key data, this approach provides a better understanding of the challenges of prevention.

2. Identify risk factors for breast cancer

To explore the genetic, hormonal and environmental factors influencing the risk of developing breast cancer.

3. Demystify preconceived ideas about breast cancer

Addressing common myths related to breast cancer prevention and causes by confronting these popular beliefs with the most recent scientific data to provide a clear, fact-based view.

4. Adopt a lifestyle that promotes prevention

Discover the impact of diet, physical activity, stress management, and alcohol and tobacco consumption on risk reduction.

5. Understand screening methods and breast self-examination

Address the different means of detection: organized screening, clinical examinations, but also breast self-examination (self-palpation), with demonstration via our exclusive educational device
