Brief Summary
|
In light of past research and personal experience in the field of community, it has been observed that women have a lack of knowledge, negative attitudes and poor or no skills toward breast cancer and its preventive measures. So, more research is needed to determine that a community-based teaching program will be an effective technique for enhancing knowledge, bringing a positive attitude, and increasing skills towards breast cancer and its preventive measures. |
