This month, we join communities across the country in raising awareness about breast cancer, encouraging regular screenings, and supporting those impacted by the disease. Early detection can save lives, and routine mammograms remain one of the most effective tools for finding breast cancer early.

If you're due for a screening, talk with your provider and make your health a priority. Taking a proactive approach today can make a difference tomorrow.

Through our partnership with Premier Health Atrium Medical Center, patients can access mammogram screenings at select First Flight Health Centers locations throughout the year. Premier Health's mobile mammography unit visits participating First Flight locations, making this important screening more convenient and accessible for our patients.

When Shana was diagnosed with diabetes, she didn't have health insurance.

Knowing she would need ongoing care, the hospital referred her to Community Health Centers of Greater Dayton, now First Flight Health Centers, because she could receive care even without insurance.

Her provider helped her understand her new diagnosis, connected her with a social worker to explore insurance options, and helped her access affordable medications and the supplies she needed to manage her diabetes. From meeting with a dietitian to getting assistance with medications and insurance enrollment, Shana had a team walking alongside her every step of the way.

That experience shaped how she cares for others today.

Today, she serves patients as a Patient Service Representative at East Dayton Dental Center. She knows what it's like to feel overwhelmed after a diagnosis, and how much it matters to have people who listen and help you navigate what's next.

As Shana shares in her story:

"Change is always difficult. But change is necessary for growth."

Watch Shana's story to learn how access to care helped her move forward and why she's passionate about helping others do the same:
