Summary

This quasi-experimental study aims to determine whether a breast and cervical cancer awareness training program can increase participation in cancer screening among women with visual impairments. The study also aims to identify barriers to screening and improve knowledge about cancer risk factors and screening methods. The main questions this study will address are:

* Does the training increase the rate at which women with visual impairments attend cancer screening appointments?
* Does the training improve participants' knowledge about breast and cervical cancer?

Participants will:

* Receive training on breast and cervical cancer risk factors and screening methods.
* Learn how to apply to the Cancer Early Diagnosis, Screening, and Training Center.
* Be encouraged to attend cancer screening during the study period.
* Have knowledge and screening status assessed before the training, immediately after, and three months later.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Cancer Screening Awareness Education for Visually Impaired Women

This intervention is an educational program designed to increase awareness among visually impaired women regarding breast cancer, cervical cancer, and colorectal cancer screenings. The training covers cancer risk factors, screening methods, the application process for Cancer Early Diagnosis, Screening and Training Centers (KETEM), communication methods, and recommended screening intervals. Following the training, participants will receive individual counseling to support them in scheduling screening appointments. A pre-test, post-test, and follow-up test will be administered during the intervention process.
