Homeless Women Get Mammograms at Project Homeless Connect;

From Ascribe Newsfeed:

For women who lack a home or a safe place to stay, getting a regular mammogram is probably way down on their list of things to do.

They are too busy struggling just to survive.

But now California Pacific Medical Center is providing free mammograms and a full health care check-up for some homeless women at the next Project Homeless Connect on February 27th at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium.

"These women have already endured so much," says Shirley Manly Lampkin, R.N., Ph.D., Director of California Pacific Medical Center's Community Benefits program.

The award honors City employees considered to have demonstrated extraordinary leadership skills.

California Pacific has been a partner in many previous PHC events and in addition to helping fund the event has made it a regular part of its Leadership Development program.

"That's why we're honored to be part of the work that Project Homeless Connect does.

Working with so many wonderful volunteers from so many different walks of life is a reminder of why we all love San Francisco, and what makes this city so great."

At San Francisco's California Pacific Medical Center, we believe in the power of medicine.

It's why we go beyond medical care and provide our patients with things like disease counseling, family support and wellness treatments.
