Kick-Off Breast Cancer Awareness Month

« Return

St. James Parish Hospital is extremely excited to lead a four-week wellness initiative in October aimed at recognizing Women’s Health and Breast Cancer Awareness Month. To kick-off the festivities, the hospital invites women from the River Parishes to a special event on Monday, October 1st. 

Local women and breast cancer survivors are invited to join us in the hospital lobby on October 1st at 6PM to be featured in the hospital’s women’s health commercial. Everyone attending is asked to wear pink and survivors are encouraged to wear banners from past events. The hospital will  also have a limited number of survivor banners. Camera shy? Don’t worry, a smile is all that’s required.

Following the filming of the commercial, join us at 7PM in the hospital lobby for a brief welcome and presentation led by Dr. Rachel Bezdek, OBGYN at Rue De Santa Women’s Center. Dr. Bezdek performs female surgeries at St. James Parish Hospital. The presentation will be followed by the first annual pink lighting of the hospital, cake and refreshments.
