“After being diagnosed with a cancer gene mutation, I knew that I needed to regular screenings to detect cancer early, one of those being annual mammograms. A few minutes of discomfort is worth the knowledge that I don’t have cancer. I have heard far too many stories of people waiting to be screened and finding out too late. I was able to get in and schedule my appointment quickly at Northern Light Maine Coast Hospital.”

May is National Speech, Language, and Hearing Month – a time to not only raise awareness about communication disorders, but to celebrate the incredible work of speech-language pathologists (SLPs). We are so incredibly grateful for all of our talented SLPs at Northern Light Health!

At Maine Coast Hospital, we are celebrating Amy Kennedy and Jalisa Patten.

Speech and language are central to human experience. The ability to communicate lets people convey needs, develop relationships, express their personality, and engage in a healthy quality of life. When any of these areas are affected, an SLP provides clinical assessment and treatment to help patients develop, restore, or optimize communication and swallowing function.

Thank you to all of our SLPs across the state for their compassion, dedication, and commitment to their patients, as they work to make their lives better every day.

Are you due or overdue for your annual screening mammogram?

If you can’t remember, then it’s time for you to get scheduled! Annual screening mammograms are critical in detecting early breast cancer, often times finding abnormalities even before a lump can be felt. As the saying goes, early detection is key!

You don’t need to wait for an order either! Just call 207.664.5311 or visit https://ow.ly/viRN50YUIRO to schedule your appointment today!

Happy Patient Experience Week! As we celebrate, we would like to share with you inspiring letters written from actual patients to our caregivers, thanking them for the care they received. We had our caregivers read these letters aloud while we recorded the moment. The caregivers did not know anything about the letters in advance so they're reactions are authentic and unscripted.
