Can you pass the Cancer Prevention Quiz?

February is cancer prevention month — how much do you know?

Research shows that many cancer diagnoses and deaths can be attributed to preventable causes, including smoking, excess body weight, physical inactivity, excessive exposure to the sun, and more.

This indicates that we all need to understand more about cancer prevention and put into practice what we know. A good start is visiting The American Association for Cancer Research website to learn more and take the CancerPreventionQuiz.

Did you know that Visiting Nurse Association of Northern New Jersey (VNA) is the longest-serving VNA in the state of New Jersey? So we know a thing or two about healthy aging and how to successfully “age in place” while avoiding hospitalization and nursing homes. We suggest that you learn more about our home health care services and make a plan to age at home before you have a health emergency.

Medicare and supplemental insurance often do not cover all the care our patients and caregivers need. If you would like to help, please visit vnannj.org/donate or call VNA Foundation at 973-451-4148.
