EP 590 – Melanoma Monday

Love this advice…If your shadow is shorter than you are, you should seek the shade.

Do you annually check your skin?  Wear your sunscreen faithfully?  Do you go and see your doctor for regular check ups?

If so, you are helping to ensure that you prevent skin cancer or at least ensure that you catch it in its early stages.

The spring is an easy time to forget to use your sunscreen. It is essential that we protect ourselves and our kids and know the early signs of Melanoma, that way we can all be safe in the sun. 

So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Melanoma Monday…and Being Safe In The Sun

Check it out.  Melanoma can be found anywhere on the body, but it is most common on the legs, back, head and neck. Do an annual scan to check for changes.

Visit your doctor regularly and make sure that they do a body scan too.

Be safe in the sun.  Enjoy the spring, summer and fall sunshine, but cover up and use your sunscreen.

Cancer changes lives, impacts families and hinders workplace productivity. Employees coming back to work after cancer treatments describe a variety of challenges that employers may not be aware of/or consider in their return-to-work accommodations. As a leader, look for ways to educate on prevention and look for ways to successfully support a team member who has been impacted.
