Drill teams members pranced and whirled, just as they’ve been dancing and high-kicking on high school campuses for generations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the scene in the wellness center itself offered a glimpse of what the future could be for school medical services in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There was a student in for routine blood work. In the next cubicle, a mother had brought her young son, who had the flu. And neighborhood resident Jonetta Stewart, 76, had come seeking relief from frequent vertigo and headaches.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Physician’s assistant Rachel Damicali checked Stewart’s blood pressure.

The district will have 14 of them within the year, says Kimberly Uyeda, Los Angeles Unified’s director of student medical services. To determine where to place the centers, district officials used computerized maps to identify “hot spots” for social and health ills including exposure to violence, poverty, obesity and high rates of sexually transmitted disease, Uyeda said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Uyeda points out that students are often affected not only by the health and wellness of their families, but also by that of the broader community. “So if we don’t either address ... the families and the communities, we’re only going to get so far with students.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Money is a big issue\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The school board has built the centers from bond funds. But money to keep the clinics operating is harder to come by.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The nonprofits that run the wellness centers bill Medi-Cal and other public insurance programs for the services they provide. But startup costs of up to a half-million dollars per clinic can be harder to recover. Health care advocates are lobbying Congress for support.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>L.A. County Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thomas is a strong backer. As a state senator, he wrote the legislation establishing a state grant program. At the Dominguez High School opening, he vowed continued support.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The more school-based health clinics that we build, the better this community and this broader area will be.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Los Angeles Unified would like to keep building, too. Someday, the district would like a center on every high school campus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alex Briscoe, director of the Alameda County Health Care Services Agency, said it’s important to proceed carefully. Privacy is a key concern.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If adolescents think their parents or their friends’ parents are going to be in the waiting room when they come in,\" Briscoe says, \"they’re not going to seek these services that have a huge stigma around them, like mental health, like alcohol and drugs, like reproductive health.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Protecting the privacy of patients could be as simple as providing separate entrances, waiting and treatment rooms for students and the public, Briscoe said. Alternatively, the centers might only be open to the public after school hours, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If such precautions are followed, Briscoe said he’s very excited about the potential for expanded services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We think that schools can be a center of community building if you have things that people need there,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And comprehensive health services is a really good one.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Listen to Chris Richard's report:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003cobject width=\"335\" height=\"85\" classid=\"d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" codebase=\"http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\">\u003cparam name=\"flashvars\" value=\"file=http://www.kqed.org/radio/archives/R201304290850b.xml\">\u003cparam name=\"src\" value=\"http://www.kqed.org/assets/flash/kqedplayer.swf\">\u003cembed width=\"335\" height=\"85\" type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" src=\"http://www.kqed.org/assets/flash/kqedplayer.swf\" flashvars=\"file=http://www.kqed.org/radio/archives/R201304290850b.xml\">\u003c/embed>\u003c/object>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/stateofhealth/12410/school-based-health-centers-serve-more-than-just-students","authors":["8344"],"categories":["stateofhealth_11","stateofhealth_14"],"tags":["stateofhealth_396","stateofhealth_461"],"featImg":"stateofhealth_12415","label":"stateofhealth"},"stateofhealth_11935":{"type":"posts","id":"stateofhealth_11935","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"stateofhealth","id":"11935","score":null,"sort":[1365034440000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"schools-struggle-to-provide-dental-health-safety-net","title":"Schools Struggle to Provide Dental Health Safety Net","publishDate":1365034440,"format":"aside","headTitle":"State of Health | KQED News","labelTerm":{"site":"stateofhealth"},"content":"\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Dental disease at the intersection of school performance and health for thousands of California children\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>By Jane Meredith Adams\u003c/em>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.edsource.org/today/2013/schools-struggle-to-provide-dental-health-safety-net/29167#.UVy3xb_JDHh\" target=\"_blank\">EdSource Today\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11944\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 224px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/stateofhealth/2013/04/03/schools-struggle-to-provide-dental-health-safety-net/kids_alamedacopublichealthdept/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-11944\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11944\" title=\"\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/stateofhealth/wp-content/uploads/sites/27/2013/04/kids_AlamedaCoPublicHealthDept.jpg\" alt=\"Students learn how to care for their teeth and receive preventive care at a dental clinic at James Madison Middle School in Oakland.

Students with toothaches were almost four times as likely to have a lower grade point average than students with healthy teeth, according to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/609845-the-impact-of-oral-health-on-the-academic.html\" target=\"_blank\">2012 study\u003c/a> by the USC School of Dentistry.\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\n\u003cp>Advocates say the dental health crisis is exacerbated by the \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/609584-tcp-fix-medical-dental-final.html\" target=\"_blank\">failure of Medi-Cal’s dental program\u003c/a>, called Denti-Cal, to adequately serve low-income children, \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/609596-calif-dental-assoc-journal-032012-school-clinics.html\" target=\"_blank\">lack of funding\u003c/a> for a state school-based dental disease prevention program for low-income children, and the lack of money to enforce existing state laws requiring oral screenings and preventive care for school children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>School-based dental clinics can play a large part in the solution, given the holes in the state’s safety net. One model is to house dental care inside a school-based medical clinic. Some 61 school-based health clinics, out of about 200 in California, offer dental screening or treatment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Outside of a school setting, finding a dentist who accepts Denti-Cal is a significant obstacle for low-income children. California’s reimbursement rates to Denti-Cal dentists are among the lowest in the nation, according to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/609584-tcp-fix-medical-dental-final.html\" target=\"_blank\">recent report\u003c/a> by The Children’s Partnership.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The numbers of low-income children who need care are expected to increase when the Affordable Care Act -- including its Medi-Cal expansion -- is fully implemented. Come January 1, nearly half of California’s children will be Denti-Cal patients, according to The Children’s Partnership report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The implications are clear, advocates say. “You’ve got to bring the services to the children,” said Roseann Mulligan, with the USC School of Dentistry and one of the authors of the study regarding oral health and student achievement.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Reaching students\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>A number of districts are doing just that. Some of the dental services are financially self-sustaining through billing to insurers, while others rely on grants and partnerships. The goal is for all clinics to become self-sustaining.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two days a week, inside the sleek new student health center housed at \u003ca href=\"http://www.ousd.k12.ca.us/Page/9002\" target=\"_blank\">James Madison Middle School\u003c/a> in Oakland, students spend about 50 minutes during physical education class period or the “sixth period” extra time in a baby-blue dental chair. A hygienist screens students for tooth decay, cleans teeth, and applies fluoride varnish and sealants. The clinic, which doesn’t provide fillings or other restorative dentistry, accepts dental insurance and Denti-Cal, and provides free service to the uninsured. Services are funded by the Alameda County Public Health Department and The Atlantic Philanthropies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another model is a mobile dental clinic. In the San Diego Unified School District, the La Maestra Mobile Health Clinic, which includes dental services, began operating in fall 2012 to provide fillings and restorative dentistry to students at the Hoover Cluster of schools: 10 elementary schools, two middle schools, and one high school in the \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/stateofhealth/2013/03/29/on-campus-clinics-a-safety-net-for-neighborhood-children/\" target=\"_blank\">City Heights neighborhood\u003c/a>, an area of high need.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we are trying to do is make it a positive experience,” said Dorothy Zirkle, a consultant for \u003ca href=\"http://www.pricecharities.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Price Charities\u003c/a>, a nonprofit dedicated to improving the quality of life for children in City Heights. “Our kids have a high need for multiple fillings. We need to build trust.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All services are no-cost, with providers seeking reimbursement from insurers when possible. Among the organizations funding the facilities and services at the mobile dental clinic are \u003ca href=\"http://www.lamaestra.org/\" target=\"_blank\">La Maestra Community Health Centers\u003c/a>, private foundations including the City Heights Partnership for Children, and the Health Resources and Services Administration of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A third model is a partnership with a nearby dental college to offer expanded services for students. In the \u003ca href=\"http://emcsd.schoolwebportal.com/\" target=\"_blank\">El Monte City School District\u003c/a>, students receive comprehensive dental care at two dental clinics housed in elementary schools, as well as from a mobile dental unit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Advocates say these programs and others like them are key to helping solve the dental health crisis facing California students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Data that show the connection between oral health and student achievement will help persuade districts to support school-based dental care, said Maryjane Puffer, executive director of the Los Angeles Trust for Children’s Health, a nonprofit founded to serve students in LA Unified.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“School districts are eager to find a way to help kids stay in school and achieve,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Learn more:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/news/story/2013/04/03/118857/californias_most_common_childhood_health_problem_dental_disease?category=bay+area\" target=\"_blank\">California's Most Common Childhood Health Problem?

Students with toothaches were almost four times as likely to have a lower grade point average than students with healthy teeth, according to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/609845-the-impact-of-oral-health-on-the-academic.html\" target=\"_blank\">2012 study\u003c/a> by the USC School of Dentistry.\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\n\u003cp>Advocates say the dental health crisis is exacerbated by the \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/609584-tcp-fix-medical-dental-final.html\" target=\"_blank\">failure of Medi-Cal’s dental program\u003c/a>, called Denti-Cal, to adequately serve low-income children, \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/609596-calif-dental-assoc-journal-032012-school-clinics.html\" target=\"_blank\">lack of funding\u003c/a> for a state school-based dental disease prevention program for low-income children, and the lack of money to enforce existing state laws requiring oral screenings and preventive care for school children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>School-based dental clinics can play a large part in the solution, given the holes in the state’s safety net. One model is to house dental care inside a school-based medical clinic. Some 61 school-based health clinics, out of about 200 in California, offer dental screening or treatment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Outside of a school setting, finding a dentist who accepts Denti-Cal is a significant obstacle for low-income children. California’s reimbursement rates to Denti-Cal dentists are among the lowest in the nation, according to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/609584-tcp-fix-medical-dental-final.html\" target=\"_blank\">recent report\u003c/a> by The Children’s Partnership.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The numbers of low-income children who need care are expected to increase when the Affordable Care Act -- including its Medi-Cal expansion -- is fully implemented. Come January 1, nearly half of California’s children will be Denti-Cal patients, according to The Children’s Partnership report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The implications are clear, advocates say. “You’ve got to bring the services to the children,” said Roseann Mulligan, with the USC School of Dentistry and one of the authors of the study regarding oral health and student achievement.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Reaching students\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>A number of districts are doing just that. Some of the dental services are financially self-sustaining through billing to insurers, while others rely on grants and partnerships. The goal is for all clinics to become self-sustaining.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two days a week, inside the sleek new student health center housed at \u003ca href=\"http://www.ousd.k12.ca.us/Page/9002\" target=\"_blank\">James Madison Middle School\u003c/a> in Oakland, students spend about 50 minutes during physical education class period or the “sixth period” extra time in a baby-blue dental chair. A hygienist screens students for tooth decay, cleans teeth, and applies fluoride varnish and sealants. The clinic, which doesn’t provide fillings or other restorative dentistry, accepts dental insurance and Denti-Cal, and provides free service to the uninsured. Services are funded by the Alameda County Public Health Department and The Atlantic Philanthropies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another model is a mobile dental clinic. In the San Diego Unified School District, the La Maestra Mobile Health Clinic, which includes dental services, began operating in fall 2012 to provide fillings and restorative dentistry to students at the Hoover Cluster of schools: 10 elementary schools, two middle schools, and one high school in the \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/stateofhealth/2013/03/29/on-campus-clinics-a-safety-net-for-neighborhood-children/\" target=\"_blank\">City Heights neighborhood\u003c/a>, an area of high need.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we are trying to do is make it a positive experience,” said Dorothy Zirkle, a consultant for \u003ca href=\"http://www.pricecharities.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Price Charities\u003c/a>, a nonprofit dedicated to improving the quality of life for children in City Heights. “Our kids have a high need for multiple fillings. We need to build trust.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All services are no-cost, with providers seeking reimbursement from insurers when possible. Among the organizations funding the facilities and services at the mobile dental clinic are \u003ca href=\"http://www.lamaestra.org/\" target=\"_blank\">La Maestra Community Health Centers\u003c/a>, private foundations including the City Heights Partnership for Children, and the Health Resources and Services Administration of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A third model is a partnership with a nearby dental college to offer expanded services for students. In the \u003ca href=\"http://emcsd.schoolwebportal.com/\" target=\"_blank\">El Monte City School District\u003c/a>, students receive comprehensive dental care at two dental clinics housed in elementary schools, as well as from a mobile dental unit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Advocates say these programs and others like them are key to helping solve the dental health crisis facing California students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Data that show the connection between oral health and student achievement will help persuade districts to support school-based dental care, said Maryjane Puffer, executive director of the Los Angeles Trust for Children’s Health, a nonprofit founded to serve students in LA Unified.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“School districts are eager to find a way to help kids stay in school and achieve,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Learn more:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/news/story/2013/04/03/118857/californias_most_common_childhood_health_problem_dental_disease?category=bay+area\" target=\"_blank\">California's Most Common Childhood Health Problem?
