During National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month, we’re highlighting the importance of regular colorectal cancer screening. Experts estimate more than 158,000 new colorectal cancer cases will be diagnosed in 2026, underscoring the value of early detection.

Colorectal cancer is highly treatable when found early, and screening can detect precancerous polyps before they become serious. If you’re 45 or older, or have risk factors, consider talking with your provider about which screening option is right for you. Taking preventive steps today supports better health tomorrow.

From graduate nurse to nurse manager, Jennifer, BSN-RN, has grown her entire career at BSA, and she’s done it by following her passion for caring for surgical patients.

Over the years, she’s stepped into several roles, built strong relationships with patients and coworkers, and continued to challenge herself professionally. “Wanting to grow professionally and take on new challenges, I later transferred to nights and served as a shift supervisor for two years. After that, I applied for the nurse manager role on the same unit. It felt like a full-circle moment to step into a leadership role on the unit that shaped my career.”

Even in leadership, Jennifer stays closely connected to the ‘why’ behind her work. “The best part of my day is getting the chance to round on patients and interact with them. Even though I’m in a leadership role, those moments remind me why I became a nurse in the first place.”

Her journey is one of many examples of how BSA supports growth, encourages advancement and gives nurses the chance to build meaningful careers right here at home.

True or False? Antibiotics can treat viruses.
Answer: False! Antibiotics fight bacteria, not viruses. Common viral illnesses like colds, flu and most sore throats won’t improve with antibiotics. Using them unnecessarily can lead to antibiotic resistance, making future infections harder to treat.

When you’re sick, talk to your primary care provider or visit our urgent care to discuss the best treatment for your symptoms.

RIP James Van Der Beek!

The Dawson's Creek star, who was diagnosed with colorectal cancer in 2024, passed away peacefully this morning at age 48.

Around 150,000 people receive the same diagnosis annually, turning life and plans upside down in an instant.

The best way to combat this disease is to catch it early with routine screenings. If you're 45 or older, or have additional risk factors, talk to your physician about scheduling a screening today.
