Review for PRASAD Children's Dental Health Program, Inc., Ferndale, NY, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Dr. Cecilia Escarra , DDS is very actively involved and firmly committed to helping Public Health Services doing children's dental prevention outreach in Sullivan County, NY. She has been screening children for many years with her staff and the PRASAD dental van at our local schools. She is a member of the Rural Health Network and has actively worked with last years Health Summit to bring about a new Oral Health Coalition team for Sullivan. A network of members are addressing the high dental caries that our third graders have. Her offices are assisting with a new mini screening program at our local WIC clinic to begin the Fall of 2015. Dr. Escarra has been a "champion for the cause" in asking for local policy change to the way our schools do pre-registration packets. Mandatory dental health screening is as vital as immunizations to the general well being of a healthy student! Public Health is grateful for PRASAD'S ongoing outreach!! Kudos to the entire staff!
