Survival rates have improved\, thanks to better screening\, targeted therapies\, and supportive care. \nWe all know that early detection saves lives. The Director of Corporate and Community Relations for The Rose will reveal new technologies\, improvements in mammograms\, and even added information on self-exams. All of these efforts can help catch cancer early when it’s most treatable. \nOur presenter speaks to groups about the importance of “taking care of you.” And she explains what those words really mean. \nCome learn the GOOD NEWS about breast health from the enthusiastic Chris Noble. \n \n \n \n \n \n ABOUT THE SPEAKER\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Christine Noble \nChris is Director of Corporate and Community Relations for The Rose\, a community leader in breast health\, founded in 1986.
