🎃 Keep Halloween Fun and Safe! 👻

Halloween is an exciting night for kids. Help keep it safe with these simple tips.

Costume Safety: Choose fire-resistant costumes, add reflective tape or glow sticks and use makeup instead of masks.

Trick-or-Treating: Young children should have an adult with them. Plan safe, well-lit routes and remind kids not to enter strangers’ homes. Wait until home to check treats.

Drivers: Slow down, stay alert and watch for children in dark clothing.

Have a safe and happy Halloween!

Early detection saves lives. Regular mammograms are one of the most effective ways to detect breast cancer early—when it’s most treatable.

Citizens Memorial Hospital now offers 3D mammography, providing clearer, more detailed images that help radiologists detect cancer earlier and reduce the need for follow-up imaging.

Learn more about how this advanced technology benefits patients from CMH CEO/Executive Director Michael Calhoun and Radiologist Dr. Jana Horner joins CEO/Executive Director Michael Calhoun in a recent blog post.
