Early Detection. Greater Awareness. Better Chances of Recovery.
Conducting community-based screening, mammography, and doctor consultations directly at doorsteps.
Screening for breast, cervical, head & neck cancers with Pap-smear and clinical examinations.
Collaborating with CAPED, YouWeCan Foundation, CPAA, and Indian Cancer Society (ICS).
Launched in 2016, the Cancer Screening & Awareness Programme of Artemis Health Sciences
Foundation was established with a clear objective - to promote awareness about cancer
prevention and the importance of early detection, particularly for breast, cervical, head
and neck cancers.
Through this initiative, Artemis Health Sciences Foundation takes
essential cancer awareness and screening services closer to communities that often face
barriers in accessing preventive healthcare. The programme primarily reaches underprivileged
communities across rural, semi-urban and slum areas of Haryana, with a major focus on
Gurugram.
A key component of the programme is the deployment of a Mobile Medical
Unit, enabling healthcare services to reach communities directly at their doorstep. This
unit conducted community-based screening and awareness activities, including breast cancer
screening and mammography, collection of Pap-smear samples for cervical cancer screening,
preliminary screening, medical consultations and cancer awareness sessions.
Artemis
Health Sciences Foundation has collaborated with:
• Cancer Awareness, Prevention and
Early Detection (CAPED)
• YouWeCan Foundation

These partnerships have enabled the
Foundation to leverage diverse expertise, strengthen community outreach and expand access to
cancer awareness, screening and early detection services among underserved communities.
Through the Cancer Screening & Awareness Programme, Artemis Health Sciences Foundation has taken preventive healthcare closer to underserved communities.
