The Social Security Public Clinic in Zarcero Canton, in Alajuela Province, announced a campaign to provide mass breast cancer prevention medical services, to be held on Wednesday, Oct. 18.

The clinic's health professionals will offer a wide range of medical procedures, including the Papanicolaou test, breast examinations, and mammograms among many others.

The medical services will run from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. The clinic staff aims to care for all the women interested in getting this medical service and assigned to this particular facility.

Based on the information provided by patients during registration, health professionals will get in touch with them to schedule medical consultations.

Residents of Zarcero, including foreigners with DIMEX cards, may find out more about the medical campaign by going to the clinic's information desk.  

This is one of many mass medical services campaigns launched by public institutions this year. Recently, the Manuel Mora Valverde Public Hospital in Puntarenas Province's Golfito Canton began a campaign to provide massive medical services.

To provide non-emergency medical care and shorten wait times for appointments, Social Security has developed many widespread initiatives. These efforts seek to finish all non-emergency medical services that were put off between 2020 and 2022 when the epidemic was at its worst, authorities said.
