Dr. Karriem S. Watson, DHSc, MS, MPH will moderate a virtual panel discussion on June 30 focused on the psychosocial needs of BIPOC communities in cancer care β€” an often-overlooked dimension of the cancer experience.

The conversation will bring together survivors, caregivers, and clinical experts to examine barriers to culturally responsive support and share practical resources for patients and families.

Hosted by Imerman Angels. Tuesday, June 30 at 6:00 PM CT. Free and open to the public.

As Nurses Week comes to a close, we want to take a moment to celebrate the nurses at Mile Square.

Every day, they show up β€” calm under pressure, sharp on care, and fully present for the patients who need them most. Our gratitude doesn't stop at the end of a week.

To every nurse on our team: thank you. πŸ’™
