Nevada Health Centers’ Mammovan which offers mammography screenings across the state is returning to northern Nevada in February.
To accommodate women who are due for a mammography screening, the Mammovan has been making stops all across Nevada communities during the pandemic.
Mammography screenings are primarily for women age 40 and older; however, screenings will be provided to those younger than 40 that have a screening referral from a provider.
Pre-screening for any COVID-19 related symptoms will occur prior to entering the Mammovan.
Below you will find the location and dates where the Mammovan will be in northern Nevada:
