ATSU hosts 10th annual Free Community Health and Wellness Day
On Saturday, April 22, ATSU hosted its 10th annual Free Community Health and Wellness Day. ATSU-ASDOH and ATSU Student Life teamed up with Adelante Healthcare in Phoenix, Arizona, to provide free dental care to more than 70 uninsured and underinsured community members. Attendees received dental screenings, sealants, fluoride varnish applications, and oral health education.
“The patients were very grateful for their treatments, but they were not the only ones who benefitted from the event,” says Jacob Shelley, D3, who helped coordinate the event. “My favorite part of the day was seeing ATSU-ASDOH students educate and serve people in need.”
