5-year survival for breast cancer is 98% if diagnosed at Stage 1 and 89.5% at Stage 2 (out of 4 stages). Early diagnosis through screening means treatment is less invasive and more effective. Please take up your screening invitation; it makes a major difference to outcomes.

The strong link between #delirium & mortality is not prominent enough in the minds of most acute care staff In this study a positive delirium test (4AT) predicted nearly 50% MORTALITY AT ONE YEAR
