Profile of BreastScreen WA
The BreastScreen WA program provides free screening mammograms to asymptomatic women and specifically targets women aged 50 to 74 years, as the scientific evidence of benefit from screening mammography is greatest for women in this age group. However, all women 40 years or over are eligible to attend.
Since March 1989 more than 2 million screening mammograms have been performed at a BreastScreen WA service.
BreastScreen WA has thirteen permanent screening clinics located at Albany, Bunbury, Cannington, Cockburn, David Jones Rose Clinic (Perth city store), Joondalup, Mandurah, Midland, Mirrabooka, Padbury, East Perth (Mardalup), Rockingham and Wanneroo.
Four mobile BreastScreen WA services visit about 100 outer metropolitan and rural towns every two years. Some towns are visited annually.
The Program is part of the national BreastScreen Australia program and is governed by the National Accreditation Standards. In Western Australia, the statewide program is under the jurisdiction of the North Metropolitan Health Service of the Health Department of Western Australia.
