Case in point – I recently met with radiation residents and learned 80% of millennials are concerned with global radiation access issues. (See Rayos Contra Cancer or Radiating Hope ). Our segment of healthcare is attempting to address access across the world. It is exciting to see the deep commitment and passion to serving beyond ourselves!
As I personally and corporately support these endeavors, how can I simultaneously continue to “act locally?” What can I do in my own neighborhood to help improve cancer treatment access? For me, the answer presented itself in Hurricane Michael, which hit the Florida Panhandle last year. With such devastation, the local healthcare infrastructure was shaken. Yet people still have cancer. Hospitals and other employers were unable to keep people employed. People were leaving the area in search of jobs.
