New, targeted skin check event in San Diego
Five-alarm opportunity for firefighters.
We’re pretty fired up about an upcoming event in San Diego. But it’s OK, we’ll also have firefighters and fire trucks on hand! The American Academy of Dermatology is launching a new, targeted skin check program in 2024 that encourages members to perform skin checks for firefighters, who are at higher risk of skin cancer due to their occupation. The program will launch with an event on March 9 at the AAD Annual Meeting. If you’ll be at the meeting, don’t be “alarmed” if you see fire trucks parked outside the convention center!
