One of the largest gifts in the institution’s history

康科德(2024年4月30日) nhti -康科德社区学院 和 东北三角洲牙科 (Delta Dental) are exp和ing on a long-time partnership 和 shared vision to support oral healthcare in the region. NH社区学院基金会 收到了500美元,000 gift from Delta Dental for 在线赌博推荐 to address the dem和 for 和 shortage of dental hygienists 和 dental assistants. The gift is one of the largest in the history of the college 和 will support the expansion of 在线赌博推荐’s dental clinic services to Medicaid patients.

“东北三角洲牙科 has long supported dental health for Medicaid patients,在线赌博推荐主席帕特里克·汤普金斯说. “通过他们的远见和在线赌博推荐的伙伴关系, for the first time 在线赌博推荐 will bring affordable oral hygiene care to this 新汉普郡 demographic that is important for the wellbeing of the Granite State.”

This investment from Delta Dental comes on the one-year anniversary of legislation that provided comprehensive Medicaid oral health benefits for NH adults. It enables 在线赌博推荐 to launch a three-year pilot initiative to exp和 the reach of the school’s 口腔卫生 Clinic, the 教育al facility on campus where 学生 provide dental care to the public with close supervision by faculty.

“在线赌博推荐 offers the only program in 新汉普郡 for training dental hygienists,” Tompkins says. “Exp和ing service to Medicaid patients in our 口腔卫生 Clinic also exp和s the training opportunities for 学生 who will work in all our communities.”

德尔塔牙科公司的资金, combined with an equal investment from the college, will allow for the hiring of a Medicaid specialist 和 a supervising dentist. 除了, the funding will allow 在线赌博推荐 to make necessary upgrades to the program’s equipment 和 improvements in the program’s materials 和 radiology labs.

“这对社区来说是件好事, 和 it’s an incredible opportunity for our 学生,丽莎·斯科特说, 在线赌博推荐口腔卫生项目系主任. “Our 学生 will gain invaluable experience in treating these patients in a clinical setting.”

成立于1970年, the 在线赌博推荐 口腔卫生 Program is recognized for its high-quality training that prepares 学生 for this healthcare role serving patients in 新汉普郡. Dental hygienists provide a range of preventive 和 therapeutic dental services, 包括评估和护理计划.

“With the expansion of Medicaid dental benefits, coupled with a continued dental hygiene shortage, the need for a skilled workforce is critical,汤姆·拉菲奥说, 东北三角洲牙科公司的总裁兼首席执行官. “We are committed to continuing to support the state’s only 口腔卫生 Program at 在线赌博推荐 和 the needed expansion to sustain 和 grow the future dental workforce that is essential for the region.”
