Hospital produces video series aimed at making transgender and non-binary individuals feel more welcome and included in cancer screening

Health Sciences North has launched a new animated video series aimed at making transgender and non-binary individuals feel more welcome and included for cancer screening.

Each video opens with an introduction from Dr. Jason Sutherland, the regional primary care lead for the North East Regional Cancer Program."I am committed to reducing the impacts and number of cancer-related deaths through our cancer screening programs." “These barriers can contribute to transgender people being less up-to-date with cancer screening. This video series is intended to bridge the knowledge gap for screening-eligible people, and provides new and specific recommendations in particular for transgender and non-binary people.”
