Achievements over the last 12 months
Limited achievement has been realised for this partnership over the last 12 months In 2022, a location identified by NACCO was assessed for suitability however the facilities and local resources were not adequate for dentistry to occur in that community. In Feb 23, NACCHO agreed that the program would be relocated to another location. Another location suitability assessment will be conducted to run the dentistry program later in 2023.
