National Screening Service (Ireland)

The National Screening Service (NSS) in Ireland organizes programs to detect health conditions early, such as cancers, in asymptomatic individuals. By offering screening tests—like mammograms or cervical screenings—it aims to identify potential issues before symptoms appear, enabling timely treatment and better health outcomes. The NSS ensures these programs are evidence-based, safe, and accessible, with the goal of reducing illness and saving lives through early intervention.
