About Visiting Dental Hygiene, Inc

Location:

4 keith way, ste. 3, Scituate, MA 02066, US

Mission Statement

The mission of VDH, Inc is to provide compassionate and comprehensive dental hygiene services to the most vulnerable populations across the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and to never deny care due to a patients inability to pay.

Description

Mobile Dental Hygiene services. We provide preventive dental hygiene care to homebound patients, homeless shelters, Senior Centers, Substance misuse centers, teen group homes, teen parenting programs and more.
We are looking for volunteers to help us with marketing(help with elevator pitch and social media) and financial expertise(putting together our budget for planning and fundraising opportunities). We are looking to expand our reach to more elderly and Veteran patients, which means that we're needing to seek funding, as these populations do not have Mass Health(which is the only ins that the Commonwealth allows public health dental hygienists to bill to.). Having a more concrete budget laid out and better fine tuned marketing will help us to be more successful.
