“I tell all of my friends to get their mammograms. It can save your life."

Elizabeth Owens is back in the saddle and moving forward with gratitude. When Elizabeth received a breast cancer diagnosis after a routine mammogram, her life changed in an instant. Over the next year, she faced chemotherapy, surgery and radiation with the support of her FirstHealth Cancer Center care team, family and friends.

Today, she's celebrating an important milestone: returning to horseback riding, a passion that brings her peace and joy. Elizabeth's story is a powerful reminder that early detection, expert care and a strong support system can make all the difference.

Today is National First Responders Day, and this recent rescue shows what's possible when highly trained teams work together under challenging conditions. 🚁 🏥

A few weeks ago, FirstHealth Chatham EMS responded to a traumatic injury at a remote river access point. The patient was deep in the woods, and with no way to reach the location by UTV, EMS crews and local fire personnel hiked in to provide care. Once on scene, teams faced another challenge: safely transporting the patient from the remote location.

Working together, first responders coordinated with the North Carolina State Highway Patrol, whose helicopter crew successfully hoisted the patient from the scene. FirstHealth paramedic Tim Connor was lifted alongside the patient, allowing critical care to continue during the flight to UNC Hospital in Chapel Hill.

This remarkable rescue highlights the professionalism, teamwork and dedication of FirstHealth EMS and our partners throughout the first responder community.

Thank you to North Chatham Fire, Chatham County Emergency Management and the North Carolina State Highway Patrol for helping us deliver on our core purpose: To Care for People.

Going PINK for a purpose! 🩷

Employees, providers and volunteers across FirstHealth are going pink to recognize Breast Cancer Awareness Month and make sure everyone knows about the importance of breast cancer screening. Here is why it's important...

- 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime
- When detected early, the 5-year survival rate is 99%
- Many women between 30 and 50 are not getting screened regularly

What you can do today...

- Schedule your annual mammogram (starting at age 40 or earlier if you have risk factors)
- Learn how to do monthly self-exams
- Talk to your provider about your family history
