We hope all is well in your school community during so many challenges for everyone.
A number of other factors are continuing to have impact of the timeliness on Oral health Care for the tamariki/children of Nelson/ Marlborough. Our unprecedented shortage of Dental and Oral health Therapists is the most inhibiting factors for services. We are working to secure more therapists however this is challenging in a period of a national shortage of trained oral health professionals. A number of strategies remain in place to make the most of opportunities available to us to keep wait times for tamariki/children to a minimum. Mobile Clinics The Wairau mobile is still off road for repairs and a COVID19 upgrade since late 2021 and we hope this is resolved soon. The Nelson area mobile continues to operate but at reduced capacity. We continue to prioritise the most outlying areas for the mobile service where access to town clinics is the most difficult. All whanau/families will be contacted by the nearest hub and alternative clinic appointments will be offered. We’ll endeavour to work with whanau/families from outlying areas to find a time that coincides with trips to town centres. Our usual annual calendar continues to change due to constraints so we will endeavour to remain in contact with schools as the plan evolves. Please don’t hesitate to contact us with any concerns in regard to the mobile service. Early Discharge Year 7 & 8 children A large number of private dentists continue to take over the care of Year 7 & 8 children instead of the usual transfer to private dentists at Year 9. Our clinics will be in touch with families as appointments come due (or are overdue) to make arrangements for those who wish to take up this option. Please work with your Community Oral Health Hub in the first instance to get this arrangement underway. Saturday Clinics Some of our team have kindly offered their time on Saturdays as an option for appointments. This is a very limited service and will be offered where it is available. Urgent Care As is our normal practice if your child has urgent needs, please be in touch with your nearest clinic to make arrangement for an urgent appointment or contact Nelson or Wairau hospitals for dental afterhours information.
