Take the Time
Through Hartford Hospital’s mobile mammography program, called Take the Time, women who live in the Greater Hartford area have improved access to breast cancer screenings.

 

Take The Time furnishes the same high-quality mammograms as those available at imaging centers. Receiving a mammogram typically takes no longer than 20 minutes. All mammograms performed are screening mammograms.

 

This service makes it convenient for women to have a screening mammogram, the best tool for identifying breast cancer in its earliest stages. This program reaches out to women who would otherwise not have access to mammography services including women without insurance coverage. The Take The Time van can go to clinics, churches, senior centers and other locations where the women will feel comfortable.
