– A meet and greet with the dental hygiene students from 5:30-6:30pm
– A continuing education presentation from 6:30-8:30pm
– A child/youth toothbrush and toothpaste drive for National Children’s Dental Health month
The meet and greet will be in room 102 on the first floor of the Tom Steed Community Center Building at Rose State and is a wonderful opportunity to network with some of your future colleagues.
The CE presentation will be in the auditorium on the first floor from 6:30-8:30pm.
Dr. Rick Wescott, MD is the medical director for the Oklahoma Health Professionals Program, a program that helps health professionals struggling with substance abuse issues. The presentation will discuss what services the program offers, who qualifies, how it is funded, and many other aspects of the OHPP and drug dependency among health professionals in Oklahoma.
Finally, for National Children’s Dental Health Month we will be collecting child/youth toothbrushes and toothpaste to donate to Infant Crisis Services, Inc. Infant Crisis Services provide formula, diapers, blankets, and other basic necessities, like oral hygiene items, to families in need. We encourage everyone to bring child/youth toothbrushes and toothpaste to donate. We will collect and deliver these items.
