\nNew York Hudson Valley event emphasizes the importance of preventive care and cancer screenings for men<\/b><\/p>\n

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Healthfirst, New York\u2019s largest not-for-profit health insurance plan, hosted a Father\u2019s Day celebration at their Newburgh Community Office with the goal of increasing awareness of men\u2019s health issues. In the U.S., the third Sunday each June is Father\u2019s Day, when we celebrate the dads and father figures in our lives. Congress has dubbed the week leading up to Father\u2019s Day as Men\u2019s Health Week\u2014a time to bring awareness to preventable health issues and early detection for men and boys. Healthfirst, together with community partners Newburgh Armory Unity Center, Cornerstone Family Healthcare, and Team Newburgh Community Coalition, welcomed neighbors into the Healthfirst community office, where guests received complimentary haircut vouchers from local barbershop Lion\u2019s Den, refreshments, and free educational resources about men\u2019s health.<\/p>\n

\nHeart disease and cancer are the leading causes of death for men in the U.S. In fact, out of 100 American men, 13 will be diagnosed with prostate cancer at some point in their lives<\/a>. \u201cHealthfirst knows that raising awareness about the importance of preventive care is one way that we can ensure more men are able to celebrate Father\u2019s Day,\u201d said Daniel Halevy, M.D., Vice President and Senior Medical Director at Healthfirst. \u201cWe encourage all men to visit a healthcare provider at least once a year for a checkup and to ask about health screenings and recommended vaccinations.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nCornerstone Family Healthcare was on hand to provide blood pressure screenings and assist with basic medical information for attendees. Cultivating Healing and Justice Initiative (CHJI) Support Services Inc., an organization dedicated to helping the community cope with prostate cancer in Orange County, NY, and the Hudson Valley, also participated in the event and provided educational material about prostate cancer screenings.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cWe are honored to partner with Healthfirst for the Father\u2019s Day celebration event at their Newburgh community office in honor of Men\u2019s Health Week,\u201d said Luis Abramson, prostate cancer survivor and founder of CHJI Support Services. \u201cTogether with Healthfirst, we seek to advocate for equitable healthcare access and education within our communities and help address prostate cancer disparities that exist in Orange County, NY, and the Hudson Valley.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\u201cHealthfirst is a long-standing partner of the Newburgh Armory Unity Center, and we are excited about the many ways our collaboration is helping to empower our communities with health information and resources,\u201d said Max Cuacuas, Director of Operations for the Newburgh Armory Unity Center. \u201cFather\u2019s Day is a perfect opportunity to have a conversation with your loved one about ways to prioritize their health and seek medical attention if needed.\u201d<\/p>\n
