This programme is simply a motion of concern for women who have dedicated themselves to serving the country, putting their wellness and their lives at risk, acting under a advanced intellectual burden and facing a real threat – he emphasises Colonel Dr. Katarzyna RałędowskaDirector of the Veteran Center.
The main nonsubjective of the wellness Mission is to conduct prevention studies among this group of women to detect breast and cervical cancers. This is 1 of the most common cancers affecting women, and their early detection increases the chances of full recovery.

The first investigation will begin on 17 June at the Military Medical Institute at Szaserów Street in Warsaw. As part of the veterans' program, they will be able to execute gynaecological tests – including cytology and, depending on age, 1 of 2 breast tests. Ladies aged 45–55 are waiting for mammography, and young women (but over 30 years) will be offered a chest ultrasound.
No referral is required to usage the test. In the case of women in service, participation in the task will not mean taking leave or taking a medical leave. The organizers emphasize that the journey to Warsaw will take place as part of a business trip, and the costs of the accommodation will be covered by a military unit in which the associate serves. In the case of veterans who are already out of service, the organisation of access and accommodation will stay within their scope.
Research in Warsaw will besides be accompanied by workshops conducted in WIM to increase the wellness awareness of participants. There are planned meetings with psychologists, lectures on cancer prevention and breast self-examination.
Organizers announce that the “Health Mission” is to be cyclical. Subsequent investigation dates will be set on an ongoing basis and communicated to the women concerned. Each patient list will be determined on the basis of the order of the applications, so it is worth enrolling as shortly as possible and taking the chance for free studies.
– We encourage all veterans to come back to participate in an crucial mission, this time in a mission for their own health," stressed Sylwia Uran, coordinator of the program.
