Empowering Visually-Impaired Women as Cancer Detectives: Discovering Hands Project
Join me for truly insightful episode of "Extraordinary Tales" as I delve into the incredible world of Discovering Hands with Dr Kamal Deep Peter, the ambassador of this ground-breaking project who shares a heart-warming journey of empowerment.
An innovative programme developed by renowned German gynaecologist Dr. Frank Hoffmann to provide accessible breast screening for women, Discovering Hands trains visually-impaired girls to become certified medical tactile examiners, working alongside oncologists in breast care centres at hospitals.
Witness the power of their heightened sense of touch, honed through rigorous training, as they detect early signs of breast cancer with astonishing accuracy.
Challenges of rigid societal mindsets notwithstanding, this podcast is a riveting account of how inclusiveness not only provides dignity of life to the visually impaired but also enhances early-stage diagnosis, ultimately making breast cancer more treatable.
