2017 Groups Ready to Travel Next Week,...
This years groups begin their work in Trelawny, Jamaica next week. Dental care is to be provided from OCT 23rd weekdays thru NOV 10th. Long Pond Clinic will serve as our home clinic. Teams are expected to work in Ulster Springs and at Good Hope Plantation. SEAL TEAM (#4) will be expanding services this year to Duncans Infant and Primary School as well as continuing their work in Duanvale, Jacksontown and Clarks Town. Weather looks to be "tropical" with no hurricanes in the forecast. There will be a total of 57 faculty, hygienists, residents, dental and hygiene students participating.
A new dental service being provided this trip is endodontics. We're hopeful this can become an integral part of the Project. Dr. Clara Spatafore, Chair of VCU SoD Endodontics along with two of her residents are spearheading this initial attempt.
Every 'ting is gonna be ah-right,...
