March Is National Colorectal Cancer Month
Get Screened Early: It may save your life
Colorectal cancer -- cancer of the colon or rectum -- is a disease that affects both men and women and is preventable nearly 90 percent of the time. Starting at age 50, men at women at average risk for the disease should get screened. Those with increased risk, like African-Americans who typically develop colorectal cancer at younger ages, should be screened even earlier. Experts recommend remembering these important points:
- Colorectal cancer can be prevented.
- Screening for the disease can identify polyps -- grape-sized growths in the colon and/or rectum -- that can be removed to prevent cancer from developing.
- The magic age for screening is 50 -- unless you have an increased risk for the disease.
- Colorectal cancer is treatable.
- Regardless of your age, know the risk factors, know the symptoms, and know your family history.
- Talk with your health professional about colorectal cancer and your own risk for the disease.
To assist you in understanding your treatment options and possible side effects, take the NexProfiler Treatment Option Tool for Colorectal Cancer at the American Cancer Society’s website: https://www.cancer.nexcura.com/Secure/InterfaceSecure.asp?CB=267

Bayshore Medical Center announced today that it is the only Houston Area Hospital to be Ranked Among the Top 5% in the Nation for Overall Clinical Excellence 5 Years in a Row according to an independent study released today by HealthGrades, the nation’s leading healthcare ratings company.
Bayshore Medical Center has achieved HealthGrades’ Distinguished Hospital Award for Clinical ExcellenceTM based on its clinical quality performance again in 2008, making it the only hospital in the Houston Area* to be a 5th consecutive year recipient. According to the HealthGrades study, patients admitted to a hospital receiving this award are, on average, 27 percent less likely to face mortality and 5 percent less likely to suffer from a major complication. This year, only 269 of the nation’s 4,971 non-federal hospitals will receive this distinction.
