CANANDAIGUA - Roseland Bowl and members of the Canandaigua USBC Bowling Association recently presented approximately $18,500 to UR Medicine’s Thompson Health for its Breast Health Patient Navigation Program.
The money was raised at the 7th Annual Bowl for the Cure held on Feb. 6 and Feb. 7 of this year. Since its inception, the event has raised more than $100,000 for Thompson’s breast cancer awareness and education programs.
With the scheduled opening of Thompson’s new Dr. Laurie Sands and Constellation Brands Breast Imaging Center, this year’s proceeds will help sustain the Breast Health Patient Navigation Program. Through the program, an assigned navigator provides immediate access to a variety support services, linking a patient to the appropriate professionals, coordinating follow up appointments and managing the delivery of reports to the patient’s care team.
Scheduled to open in September of this year, the new center will offer patients private access to all breast imaging services, including 3D mammograms, with same-day testing and results available.
