Mammogram -Getting a mammogram can help find breast cancer early.  Women age 40 and older should get a mammogram every year.

Colonoscopy - Colon cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths.  If you are 50 or older, talk with your doctor about getting a colonoscopy.

PAP - Getting a pap smear every year can help find anything that may lead to cancer.  Take time to schedule a pap smear.

Flu - The best way to prevent the seasonal flu is to get the flu shot.  Getting a flu shot every year is very important.

Pneumonia - Pneumonia can be serious.  Talk to your doctor to see if the pneumonia shot is right for you.
