BreastScreen SA have made the decision to halt their breast cancer screening services for at least three months.

As the number of Coronavirus cases in the state climb, the General Manager, Niamh Wade, announced that the measures would help protect clients and staff members.

He said, “The closure is a precautionary measure and is not due to a suspected case of COVID-19 at its facilities”. The agency are urging women to remain vigilant about their own breast health and ensure that they are regularly checking their own breasts.

We advise you to contact your health care practitioner if you have any concerns - and head to our #linkinbio now to find out how you can check your own breasts at home 💗✊

Today Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced that the government will suspend all elective surgeries other than Category 1 and urgent Category 2 cases.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This will come into effect at midnight, March 25th and applies to both the public and private hospital systems.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“Cancellation of elective surgery will allow the preservation of resources like personal protective equipment and allow health services to prepare for their role in the COVID-19 outbreak,” Mr Morrison said.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We know that this will be difficult news for many women in our community. Our hearts go out to each of you today as we understand the emotional and, in some cases, physical toll this is going to take on many of you.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For those women affected by this announcement, we encourage you to liaise directly with your healthcare team to discuss options. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Pink Hope is here for you during this difficult time.

And you can always get in touch with us at any time 💖 send us a DM, email or call.

What things can I control when the world feels like a scary place? 💖

How much media I take in. It's OK for me to pace myself, switch off my phone and give my brain a rest sometimes.

How I react and respond. (And I can be extra understanding and compassionate with myself at momement)

How I take care of myself. Including washing my hands and listening to the experts.

How often I connect to my loved ones. Even if that's a phone call, text or video chat.

How are you taking care of yourself today? 💕
