EMU Health

EMU Health would like to thank all of the trailblazing women in medicine who broke barriers for themselves, underserved patients, and the nation as a whole. How can you thank the women in your life? Here are a few ways you can show support for the strong women in your life: 1. Be Social:... Show your support for the women in your life by telling them that you appreciate them. If you post on social media, use the hashtag #womenshistorymonth 2. Discover: Learn about the history of the women in your life. Read stories about historical figures in medicine. 3. Connect: Connect the strong women in your life with the knowledge and resources to live a healthy and safe life. Here’s some advice that all women who are 40 years and older should hear Women 40 years old and older should begin annual mammograms to help detect breast cancer. Opt for a 3D mammography, an FDA-approved advanced technology that takes multiple images, or X-rays, of breast tissue to recreate a 3-dimensional picture of the breast. These multiple images of breast tissue slices give doctors a clearer image of breast masses. It makes it easier to detect breast cancer. https://www.emuhealth.com/bl/march-is-womens-history-month/

January is Cervical Health Awareness Month and EMU Health is working to insure that those who may be susceptible know the preventative measures that can be taken. Cervical cancer has become increasingly preventable through vaccinations for the human papillomavirus (HPV) and screening tests for HPV and pap smears. Yet, there is still increased awareness and action needed to fight this very common virus. In fact, 45 percent of men ages 18 to 59, and 40 percent of women ages 18 ...to 59 are infected with HPV some 79 million Americans. About 70% of cervical cancer cases are caused by HPV but the majority of those infected won’t develop cancer, says Dr. Zoya Gavrilman, an obstetrician and gynecologist at EMU Health in Glendale,Queens. When you schedule your pap smear at EMU Health, your gynecologist will take a sample of your cervical cells to facilitate the screening. Testing for HPV doesn’t require a separate appointment. Vaccination, regular women’s health screenings, quitting smoking and practicing safe sex are among the preventative measures that can be taken against HPV. c To schedule your appointment with Dr. Gavrilman, or any of the other practices at EMU Health, call us at (929) 264-7733 or visit emuhealth.com. https://www.emuhealth.com//january-is-cervical-health-awa/

Today is #globalhandwashingday Washing your hands is easy, and it’s one of the most effective ways to prevent the spread of germs. Clean hands can stop germs from spreading from one person to another and throughout an entire communityfrom your home and workplace to childcare facilities and hospitals. Follow these five steps every time.... Wet your hands with clean, running water (warm or cold), turn off the tap, and apply soap. Lather your hands by rubbing them together with the soap. Lather the backs of your hands, between your fingers, and under your nails. Scrub your hands for at least 20 seconds. Need a timer? Hum the Happy Birthday song from beginning to end twice. Rinse your hands well under clean, running water. Dry your hands using a clean towel or air dry them.
