Early detection isn’t just about identifying risk — it’s about having a plan to act.

The From Screening to Action pathway turns proactive checks into protection:

1. Establish a baseline
2. Test routinely
3. Trigger if changes appear
4. Treat with short, simple therapy

This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, let’s make proactive lymphedema screening a standard part of survivorship care.

Awareness is powerful — but it only matters if it leads to action.

That’s why events like last week's Breast Cancer Awareness Day at Mercy Medical Center in Baltimore was so important. They remind us that survivorship isn’t automatic. It takes resources, proactive care, and honest conversations about side effects like lymphedema.

We were proud to support this gathering during BCAM, where survivors and providers came together to talk not just about cancer, but about life after cancer.

Earlier this week was Breast Reconstruction Awareness Day.

Survivors, providers, and advocates gathered at Rush MD Anderson Cancer Center in Chicago to share stories and resources about life after breast cancer surgery.

We were proud to support this important event with our team on-site connecting with providers and patients.

Reconstruction is more than a procedure — it’s about restoring confidence and supporting survivors as they move forward.

Not every side effect of breast cancer treatment is visible.

Lymphedema is called the silent side effect because it often starts with things you can’t see:

• A sleeve that feels tighter
• An arm that feels heavy
• A sense that something’s “off”

These signs are easy to miss — but they matter.

This BCAM, let’s make the silent side effects impossible to ignore. Survivorship is about protecting strength long after treatment ends.

Lymphedema Prevention Program with Body Composition

📅 Oct 22 | 6 pm ET

Most cancer programs agree: early detection is critical.

But turning that into a workable surveillance program — one that staff can run, patients can follow, and data supports — is the real challenge.

That’s exactly what Dr. David Weintritt and Kristin Lupton of Virginia Cancer Specialists will unpack:

- How to operationalize screening from baseline through follow-up
- Why body composition monitoring matters for long-term survivorship
- Best practices their team has put into action

Elaine’s story: “Knowledge is power.”

As both a breast cancer survivor and a Clinical Program Specialist at ImpediMed, Elaine knows the value of catching lymphedema early.

On the Breast Cancer Podcast, she joins Dr. Walton Taylor and Mary Rose Gill, RN, to share how survivors and care teams can:

- Detect lymphedema before swelling appears
- Understand what L-Dex® scores mean
- Lower risk and support long-term wellness

Last week, ImpediMed joined survivors, families, and clinicians at Breast Reconstruction Awareness Day (BRA Day), hosted by Intermountain Health.

The event spotlighted something survivors often don’t hear enough about: options. Options for reconstruction. Options for recovery. Options for rebuilding confidence after breast cancer.

For us, the message was clear: survivorship is about more than managing side effects. It’s about restoring strength, identity, and quality of life.

We’re grateful to Intermountain Health for creating a space where survivors can learn, connect, and celebrate life after treatment.
