The FirstHealth Lung Bus is bringing free lung cancer screenings to Chatham County, made possible by The Foundation of FirstHealth. This essential service could be a lifesaver – after all, lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in North Carolina. We’re committed to changing this reality by offering convenient, accessible, and completely free scans designed for those who qualify.
To be eligible for a screening, you must be between 50-80 years old, currently smoke or have quit within the last 15 years, have a history of smoking equivalent to 20 pack-years, and not have had a chest CT scan within the last year.
Don’t miss this opportunity to take a vital step toward better lung health. With the FirstHealth Lung Bus, you can breathe easier, knowing you’re prioritizing your well-being. Your health matters – let’s work together to protect it!
Pre-registration is preferred, but walk-ups are welcome. Register by calling (910) 715-LUNG or emailing LungBus@firsthealth.org
