The Saint-Laurent-du-Pont Hospital Center marked the month of October with active mobilization for breast cancer awareness, through various actions aimed at professionals and patients.

Throughout October, professionals and patients mobilized to raise awareness about breast cancer prevention and screening. Initiatives included encouraging screening, distributing pink masks and pins in services, and an awareness campaign on self-examination.
Gourmet and solidarity activities were also offered, notably solidarity treats provided to patients by the GCS Voironnais Chartreuse. The "All in Pink" operation took place from October 12 to 18.
The collective highlight of this mobilization was the creation of a giant human ribbon in the park of the Verel site, symbolizing unity and commitment against the disease.
These initiatives underscored the importance of prevention, awareness, and encouraging breast cancer screening. The establishment thanked all participants for their involvement.
