🚒Firefighters face a significantly higher risk of cancer due to occupational exposure. That’s why awareness, early detection, and prevention are critical for our first responders.🎗Our recent fire truck wrap in the Mat-Su ▪Miss Aurora▪ serves as a powerful community reminder that screening saves lives for firefighters and citizens alike! Thank you to our fire service partners who protect us every day. This post is hared in loving memory of Fire Chief Chad Cameron with Palmer Fire & Rescue, whose leadership and service left a lasting impact on our community.🙏

💜November marks a time when we pause to recognize the unseen heroes who walk beside individuals throughout cancer treatment. Behind every person navigating this journey is a network of support that often goes unrecognized.
Shirlie M., LMSW, Oncology Social Worker and part of our Integrated Care Team, shares an important perspective: "When you think about a survivor’s care team you think oncologists, nurses, social workers, palliative care provider, and many other medical professionals who help navigate a cancer diagnosis but there is one care team member that is often not acknowledged and that is Caregivers. Our family members, friends, and loved ones that stand beside survivors every day through their cancer diagnosis and into survivorship. As a social worker I see firsthand the impact caregivers make for their loved ones – from navigating our complex medical system, accompanying to appointments, helping with medications, filling out paperwork, and so much more. Caregivers are an extraordinary and instrumental member the care team, and we can’t thank them enough for all they do standing beside their loved ones." - Shirlie M.
