Last week Mountain Laurel Medical Center employees participated in “Wear Blue Day,” supporting colorectal cancer awareness. 

Mountain Laurel is proud to support initiatives like these to improve the community’s awareness of colorectal cancer and overall health outcomes. 

“What? Dress in Blue Day lets allies everywhere join our mission to end colorectal cancer. By wearing blue, you bring awareness to this disease and support our work — as well as honor all who are impacted by colorectal cancer.

When? Dress in Blue Day is Friday, March 5. All of March is National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month.

Why? In 2021, an estimated 149,500 people will be diagnosed with this highly preventable disease. They will join more than 1.4 million colorectal cancer patients and survivors living today. We go blue for them, their families, and their community.”
