Cancer Information / Awareness

Mobile Information Units
The Foundation, through its mobile information units, reaches out to as many people as possible. The Foundation believes that by doing so more people will not only become aware of cancer and related issues but also become our partners in spreading our education messages.

We have in-unit information presentations as well as prosthetic teaching aids on board in order to educate, show and highlight the importance of early detection and self awareness. The Unit is equipped with take home information leaflets on each of the key cancers and it provides the public with access to tests on body mass index and lung capacity. These tests are designed to make people aware of the importance of good health with the emphasis on prevention and early detection. All our units are manned by trained nursing staff.

If you would like to offer our service to your community or host the unit in your area please contact info@mariekeating.ie

Workplace Presentations
Our trained nurses are also equipped to visit your place of work or community group and give a presentation using a laptop, charts, prosthetics and other teaching aids. Our nurses offer advice and help to groups of men or women as part of annual health days or as a once off assistance to staff. Arrangements can also be made for staff to speak to our nurse individually or as part of a group.

If you would like to arrange for a group presentation in your community or place of work please email info@mariekeating.ie
