🎗️ March is Colore**al Cancer Awareness Month 🎗️
At Clay County Rural Emergency Hospital, we want to remind our community that screening saves lives.
Colore**al cancer is one of the most preventable cancers when caught early, but many people delay screening simply because they don’t realize when they should start.
✔️ If you are 45 or older, it’s time to get screened.
✔️ If you have symptoms like re**al bleeding, changes in bowel habits, persistent abdominal pain, or unexplained weight loss, you should talk with a provider.
Early detection makes a huge difference. When colore**al cancer is found early, the survival rate is about 90%.
Our general surgeon, Dr. Scott A. Cassidy, performs screenings and procedures right here in Clay County so you can receive care close to home.
