  • Title: The nurse's role in promoting breast awareness to women.
    Author: Graham H.
    Journal: Nurs Times; ; 101(41):23-4. PubMed ID: 16255100.
    Abstract:
    Breast awareness is now a recognised part of health promotion and has replaced previous guidance on breast self-examination for women. Since it was introduced in the early 1990s, along with the breast awareness five-point code, it has become a key element in the strategy to detect breast cancer at an early stage. Despite this, confusion about breast awareness persists, with women still wanting to know how to examine their breasts properly.
