The Saint Joseph Regional Medical Center Mobile Medical Unit travels around the county to offer mammograms, physicals and other women's health care.

The Mobile Medical Unit has several more stops this month in South Bend and Mishawaka. Some of the stops include both mammograms and nurse practitioners.

The unit will stop at Kroger in Mishawaka on Tuesday from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m., Thursday 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. and Friday 9 a.m. – 1 p.m.

Next week the unit will stop at the Sister Maura Brannick Health Center and the First United Methodist Church in Mishawaka. Both visits are from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.

WSBT-TV has teamed up with Saint Joseph Regional Medical Center to bring you the Pink Pack.

Here's how it works:

You pick a friend to be your Pink Pack Pal. Then you request a Pink Pack.

You'll get a breast self-exam guide, a pen and a kitchen magnet — one for you and one for your Pink Pack Pal. We'll remind you on the 22nd of every month to call your Pink Pal and remind her to do her breast self-exam. And remember to do yours the same day. Early detection saves lives.

Become a member of the Pink Pack right away — it could save a life.
