    Did you know we can get a map of your heart? An echocardiogram, or "echo," is a special test that uses sound waves to create pictures of your heart. It uses ultrasound technology. How do you know if you need one? Your provider might recommend an echocardiogram to: ? Check the size and shape of your heart ? Look at how your heart's valves are working ? See how your blood is flowing ? Detect any heart conditions early on During most echocardiograms, you'll lie down comfortably while a technician moves a small device over your chest. It's painless and gives us a lot of information about your heart health! Talk to your primary care provider to see if they recommend any heart testing for you. They can provide a referral if needed. Beacon is here to help keep your heart healthy and strong! Our heart care team specialists review your test results and help you plan for a healthier you.

Our Beacon Children's Hospital team is celebrating Spirit of Children Week with our young patients, helping them pick out their favorite costumes while donning pajamas and dressing as Dynamic Duos. Spirit Halloween raises money for local children's hospitals across the country through its Spirit of Halloween program, donating more than $124,000 over the past three years toward the Child Life program at Beacon Children's Hospital.

    Health equity is fundamental to our community's well-being. Our health is shaped by more than just medical care. Where we are born, live, work and play greatly impacts our health. In fact, these factors account for 80 percent of what determines our health. "For a long time when we said 'health care' we meant health, the care you receive at your doctor's office and in the hospital, and now it's so much more than that," Kimberly Green Reeves, executive director, Beacon Community Impact, said in an interview on WVPE Radio. "Health equity is making sure that everyone has an opportunity to achieve their full potential of health and well-being." Beacon is committed to a comprehensive approach to health, partnering with community organizations to address the full spectrum of factors influencing health and work toward health equity for all. "This is not something we can do alone," Green Reeves said. "We need to lean into those community partners to be able to help us address those barriers."

    Healthcare security and safety take a variety of forms. From the physical safety of patients and personnel in hospitals and clinics to the cybersecurity of the records and medication. Facilities face threats of various levels on a daily basis. Their security and safety network follow set guidelines and protocols to resolve matters at every level. Whether the concerns involve violence, patient safety, emergency management or infection control, personnel have been trained at every level. Healthcare Security and Safety Week take time to honor the dedicated professionals who secure the facilities we rely upon for our healthcare needs. It takes place annually during the second full week in October.

    Twenty years ago, Monica Santa’s life changed forever with a phone call. “I think about it every year when it comes along,” she recounts, her voice filled with emotion. She’s describing the moment she learned she had breast cancer. Despite no family history or palpable lumps, a routine mammogram revealed the hidden threat. Monica underwent radiation and ever since has been cancer-free. She does not take for granted how early detection has allowed her to live and tell her story. “If we do detect cancer early, we are talking about a 99 percent survival rate," says Samir B. Patel, MD, FACR , the Beacon radiologist who diagnosed Monica. "It is one of the greatest success stories in medicine.” Hear more from Dr. Patel and read about Monica’s journey from patient to volunteer in this month’s “Eye on Health" during Breast Cancer Awareness Month: https://bit.ly/3U2dlKb
