Atlantic Fellows for Health Equity’s Post

This #DentalHealthWeek, we focus on the unique challenges faced by rural Australians, particularly our children. With fewer dental practitioners and poorer oral health compared to urban areas, action is needed. The Department of Health and Aged Care supports extra rural health dental training places following the Senate Select Committee's report, ‘A System in Decay: A Review into Dental Services in Australia.’ We urge the government to act on these recommendations to improve dental services in rural communities. Join us in advocating for better dental care for our rural children. Together, we can ensure everyone has access to quality oral healthcare. 🦷 Learn more about dental health in rural Australia: https://lnkd.in/g8wn3NjM #DentalHealthWeek #RuralHealth #OralHealth #HealthySmiles #DentalCare #DHW2024

The Government acknowledges that older Australians experience poorer oral health outcomes and experience greater barriers to accessing dental and oral care. There is currently a breadth of work underway to address recommendations relating to dental and oral health, made by the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety. As part of this effort, quality standards will be reviewed and updated, multidisciplinary outreach services will be tested out for older adults in aged care, and roles and responsibilities related to providing health care to older adults in aged care will be made clear https://lnkd.in/gwsmgBr8 #AgedCare #OralHealth #DentalServices

Mission Moment: A code was called to OB/GYN at Clinch Valley Health when patient Courtney Thomas, a 36-week pregnant woman was rushed to the emergency department after suffering seizures and other medical complications. While preventing emergency situations altogether is the best-case scenario, the second-best scenario is recognizing an emergent situation and acting quickly - which is what happened with Clinch Valley Health medical team, ultimately saving two lives. https://lnkd.in/eEhkcFFu
