Jamestown, (JRMC)\u00a0 \u00a0<\/strong>\u2014 Taking time off work is often a barrier to care, especially for women charged with both professional and domestic duties.<\/p>\n That\u2019s why Jamestown Regional Medical Center is offering a special Saturday No Excuses event.<\/p>\n JRMC Chief Nursing Officer, Trisha Jungles says, \u201cWe know how hard it is for women to make time for themselves. By offering this special Saturday of No Excuses, October 26, we can reduce more barriers to care.\u201d<\/p>\n Since 2015, Central Valley Health and JRMC have collaborated to reduce barriers for women\u2019s health. In that time, more than 100 women have received 3D mammograms and preventative services they otherwise wouldn\u2019t have due to time, finances, transportation or lack of insurance coverage.<\/p>\n The program, called No Excuses, is funded through the generosity R.M. Stoudt\u2019s Running of the Pink participants. In the 12 years of ROP, R.M. Stoudt has raised more than $100,000 for women\u2019s care in this community.<\/p>\n In any given year, 30 percent of women over 40 in Stutsman County are not up to date on their mammograms. Last year, about 50 women participated in No Excuses. JRMC performs about 2,000 mammograms per year.<\/p>\n No Excuses isn\u2019t just for women who can\u2019t afford it. Busy moms, grandmothers and professionals are also worthy candidates.<\/p>\n Registered nurse and unit administrator at Central Valley Health District\u00a0 Robin Iszler\u00a0 says, \u201cIf you\u2019ve never had a mammogram, or it\u2019s been a long time, you are definitely the woman we are looking for.<\/p>\n This year, No Excuses is set for:<\/p>\n
