Cervical Cancer Awareness Week - The Power of Choice

There are more choices than ever before to help protect and prevent Cervical Cancer:


1. One (1) dose of the HPV vaccine is free for young people from 12 to 25 years, male and female if you missed your chance at school age.


2. Cervical screening tests every five (5) years for women and those with a cervix from age 25–74 years.


3. Choose Your Screening Method. 

There are choices:

Have your doctor or nurse perform a cervical screening test. We are able to provide the option of a nurse performing your screening at Salisbury Medical Centre.

Talk to your doctor about self-collection. They will explain how to collect your sample yourself.
