If you quit smoking, this still matters. Quitting smoking is a powerful step. But even if you quit up to 15 years ago, you may still qualify for a Low Dose CT Lung Screening. This screening helps detect lung cancer before symptoms appear — and before it becomes harder to treat. Insurance coverage and financial assistance may be available for those who meet the criteria. Learn more at valleyhealthlink.com/ldct or talk with your provider.

Today is Epilepsy Awareness Day, a time to increase understanding of a condition that affects people of all ages. Epilepsy is a neurological disorder that causes recurring seizures, which can vary widely in how they look and how often they occur. With proper diagnosis, treatment, and support, many people with epilepsy live full, active lives. Raising awareness helps reduce stigma, encourages timely care, and supports individuals and families navigating this condition every day. For more information on Valley Health's comprehensive epilepsy program, visit valleyhealthlink.com/epilepsy.

The Virginia Comprehensive Epilepsy Program at Valley Health provides patients with the care and treatment they need to manage and prevent seizures.
