We know that patient education and awareness of good breast health can calm fears while ensuring earlier diagnosis of breast cancer.

Post this

Yardley, Penn. (PRWEB) January 21, 2015 -- The StayWell Company, LLC (StayWell), a leading provider of health education and engagement solutions, announced today that Sanford Health, the nation’s largest rural, not-for-profit health care system, is expanding its use of the company’s Krames Patient Education products to include a Breast Lump and Breast Surgery booklet, in addition to the Breast Health FastGuide. These breast health resources are customized solutions that educate and inform patients about breast self-care, which promotes early diagnosis and improved health outcomes in the treatment of breast cancer. Sanford Health sees approximately 60,000 patients per year for breast screening and testing, and will use the new resource as part of its core patient education to support the Edith Sanford Breast Health Initiative.

“We expanded our partnership with StayWell to include new breast health resources because we found we can easily customize the material with Sanford content and branding so it aligns with and supports our specific patient education goals,” said Richard Preussler, Coordinator of Chronic Disease Self-Management at Sanford Health. “Our goal is to provide the highest level of clinical care possible, as well as to conduct research that will lead to the elimination of breast cancer. Educating patients about breast health is a crucial step toward reaching this goal.”

Sanford Health also leverages a variety of additional customized StayWell resources across its system, such as Total Joint Replacement Surgery, Living Well After Heart Surgery, and a Guide to Having Surgery, because they have been shown to improve patient outcomes and increase patient satisfaction with the care system.

“The topic of breast cancer can often be confusing and cause concern for patients. StayWell’s breast health resources are easy-to-read, engaging sources of practical information about common non-cancer breast conditions, breast cancer risk factors, self-exam techniques, regular clinical screenings, and warning signs that prompt a physician visit. We know that patient education and awareness of good breast health can calm fears while ensuring earlier diagnosis of breast cancer,” said David Gregg, M.D., Chief Medical Officer, StayWell. “We’ve designed our breast health resources to allow health systems and cancer treatment centers to enhance educational materials with their own brand and details about their treatment approach, providing patients helpful information and ensuring a better health care experience.”

The Breast Lump booklet, Breast Surgery booklet and Breast Health FastGuide are part of StayWell’s Krames Patient Education suite of products. The solutions are designed to educate patients to help them better manage their condition, improving health outcomes, quality and patient satisfaction.

About Edith Sanford Breast Center
At Edith Sanford Breast Center, Sanford Health’s experts in clinical care and research have joined together for one goal: to provide the highest level of clinical care and to conduct research that will lead to the elimination of breast cancer. The initiative was created thanks to a $100 million gift from Denny Sanford, who lost his mother, Edith, to breast cancer at the age of four. This gift has allowed Sanford Health to deliver the latest in breast cancer therapy, and take a bold, new approach in breast cancer research and treatment. Not only does the Center provide leading-edge breast cancer care across the region, it also has a team of specialists with the expertise to back up those services. From breast radiologists and genetic counselors to breast surgeons, medical and radiation oncologists and survivorship care, the Center supports patients through every stage of their cancer journey.
