💙 MEN ASK… BUT NOT OUT LOUD.
September is Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, and over the next few weeks, we’re opening the conversation around the questions men may have about prostate cancer—but are often too afraid, uncomfortable, or embarrassed to ask.

DAY 1:
❓ “If I have no symptoms, could I still have prostate cancer?”
Yes. Early prostate cancer often causes no noticeable symptoms, which is why knowing your risk and having conversations with your healthcare provider are important.

This September, ask the question. Get the information. Know your risk. Get screened. 💙

Strengthening Care Through Training 💙

As part of the Ministry of Health and Wellness’ Community Arranged Response Effort (CARE) Agenda Initiative, caregivers within NERHA participated in a training session led by **Professor Denise Eldemire-Shearer, OJ, CD, Professor of Public Health and Ageing at UWI Mona, alongside the MOHW team.

The training focused on equipping caregivers with the knowledge and practical skills needed to provide safe, compassionate and quality care, particularly for older and vulnerable persons within our communities.

Healthy communities start with prevention. 🇯🇲

Health doesn’t only happen in hospitals. It happens at home, in our communities and through the choices we make every day.

It’s also why I take some of these conversations to the streets. The topics may sometimes feel uncomfortable or even taboo, but they are real issues that Jamaicans are making decisions about every day. We have to be willing to talk about them.

Remember better health starts long before we get to the hospital.

Sometimes the best mental health break at work is simply being unserious for a few minutes. 😂🤭

… sometimes you just need to laugh, be silly, and bring out your inner child. 🫶🏽

Because taking care of your mental health doesn’t always have to look serious. Sometimes it looks like THIS. 😂
