On this episode of Beyond Extraordinary, host Kristen Gradney, Chief Wellness Officer, sits down with Andrea Patton, Senior Director of Women's Services, to celebrate Women's Health Month and explore the full spectrum of care available to women across the LCMC Health system.
From essential screenings and preventive care at every stage of life, to the risks women face from breast, cervical, and ovarian cancers, Andrea and Kristen break down what it truly means to prioritize your health. They also highlight LCMC Health's expanding Women's Health services, including five nationally recognized birthing hospitals, a $14 million investment in women's and newborn care at Lakeside Hospital, a new 60-bed Level 4 NICU at Manning Family Children's, and community programs like Family Connects and Project M.O.M. aimed at improving maternal health outcomes across Louisiana.
