Community partnerships are just one of the many reasons we love Columbus Public Schools!
On Wednesday, Dr. Wanda Cloet and her team of dental hygiene students from Central Community College - Hastings spent the morning at West Park performing dental screenings. These screenings included an assessment of the oral cavity, inspection of each student's teeth and application of sealants if applicable. Occupational Health staff from Columbus Community Hospital served as a liaison and provided dental kits provided by DHHS to each participating student whose parent completed the consent form. We had 80 students participate!
Thank you to CCH & Dr. Cloet's team for making this a great event at West Park Elementary!
