| IDC: A FULL-SERVICE ORAL HEALTH CARE SYSTEM |
|
Most institutions have neither the time, space, nor money to invest in a full-fledged dental office; or to use staff time to keep track of the patient’s dental history and the necessary paperwork. IDC trained staff assesses the needs of the patient, provides emergency and routine care, and establishes and maintains an environment that is conducive to quality oral health care in accordance with federal and local guidelines. IDC is a cost effective preventive system that works.
|
|
The IDC staff includes a dentist and a clinical coordinator for each facility. The coordinator schedules appointments and maintains comprehensive dental records and service delivery data. Each member of the staff has received extensive training in the care of geriatric and disabled patients. Dentists and support staff are recruited from the local area.

| IDC PROVIDES IN-SERVICE EDUCATION |

IDC trains nursing home personnel in the delivery of oral hygiene to their patients. This includes hands-on instructions and video presentations as required by federal regulations. Educating new personnel is a vital on-going process for all health care practitioners.
