Since becoming the Swope Health Director of Dental Outreach in 2020, Shawn Oprisiu has played a pivotal role in enhancing the dental care experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I got here, we had a pack-and-play process,\u201d Oprisiu said. \u201cWe would go into schools and set up a clinic inside to serve the children. We had enough infrastructure to house a mobile unit, which was our main goal and why I was recruited here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After getting approval from senior leadership and the board of directors, Swope Health received a large grant from Delta Dental to help purchase the first MDU \u2013 which arrived in the fall of 2020. Swope Health needed to find and purchase a unit, install dental equipment inside, and paint it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI talked with people who were running mobile programs all over the country about what was good, what was bad, what they liked, and what they disliked,\u201d she said. \u201cWe ultimately decided to partner with Farber Specialty Vehicles to provide the mobile unit to us. They built a beautiful unit, and then we delivered the rest of it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Resurrection Church was instrumental in Swope Health\u2019s second MDU. Resurrection has an annual tradition of donating their entire Candlelight Christmas Eve Offering to fund Kansas City-based projects and <a href=\"https:\/\/swopehealth.org\/swope-health-receives-major-gift-from-resurrection-church-to-expand-childrens-access-to-dental-care\/\">assisted Swope Health in 2023<\/a>. It took 15 months to complete the second MDU \u2013 which made its debut earlier this year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne day when we were out in the community, a couple of people from Resurrection saw the unit, toured it, and asked more about what we do,\u201d she said. \u201cThe church was able to fund the second unit with their generous Christmas Eve offering.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The MDU team has given a name to both Winnebago units, naming the original one Winnie and the newer one Willie. Now that there are two units, they have a new process to ensure patients get the most out of their experiences with Swope Health.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWinnie has two dental hygienists, and a CSR, and a driver,\u201d Swope Health Mobile Dental Unit Clinic Manager Martha Gutierrez said. \u201cAfter we give cleanings and document the patients, Willie follows up with treatment a week or two later. Dr. Shea Durington goes out on the treatment days with her Dental assistant.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Between September and May, the MDU serves children at schools in the Kansas City area. The MDU provides care to nearly 3,000 children annually and typically serves 20-30 children at each school.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI act as an advocate for the children,\u201d Gutierrez said. \u201cThey are registered before we get there, so I\u2019m able to escort them onto the bus where they wait. I\u2019m always going back and forth from the bus to get the kids on there to get seen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Swope Health will serve any school that reaches out about the services. There isn\u2019t a limit to how far Swope Health\u2019s MDU will travel. So far, it has traveled as far north as Excelsior Springs, Mo., and as far south as Olathe, Kan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m in contact with the schools and let them know what days are available for us to come on site,\u201d Oprisiu said. \u201cOnce we book it, they start the process with the children by sending out registration to the entire school.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There are no requirements for the children whom Swope Health\u2019s MDU serves. Regardless of insurance status, anybody can be seen.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you\u2019re uninsured, we have funding sources that offer financial assistance for dental services, such as the Kansas City Health Levy. We also have a program with MARC (Mid America Regional Council) that pays for uninsured kids to be seen,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>While Swope Health\u2019s MDU focuses primary on students during the school year, it also travels to homeless shelters during the summer. Willie and Winnie also travel to various community events throughout the year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were out every weekend in August for back-to-school events and attended some major events for Juneteenth and Pride Month. It\u2019s important for us to be out in the community and serve those who don\u2019t have any other way to be seen,\u201d Oprisiu said.<\/p>\n<p>Interested in scheduling the Swope Health Mobile Medical Unit for a community event?
