November is here and it is time to get informed, get tested, and give back to our community. Did you know that their are over 8 national health observances for the month of November? A few are listed below.
National Alzheimer's Disease Awarenesss
American Diabetes
National Hospice Palliative Care
National Healthy Skin
National Stomach Cancer Awareness
National Lung Cancer Awareness
COPD Awareness
Prematurity Awareness
What can you do in the month of November for yourself, family and friends? You can schedule a screening with your doctor so that you may be tested for Diabetes or Skin Cancer.
If you have family members or friends who have been affected by any of the diseases mentioned above or at http://www.healthfinder.gov/nho/nho.asp#m11 then perhaps you can further research in the fields by providing a monetary donation, hosting or participating in an event such as the March of Dimes Walk or the National Hospice Run to Remember Program.
