Tuesday, November 24, from 10:30-11:30am come hear Katie Fleming, Dental Hygiene, and Lisa Libassi, Nursing, Shoreline Community College, talk about the Dental Hygiene and Nursing Service-Learning Program in Bolivia, 2015.
The discussion will be about the study abroad students' experiences while working with the Smiles Forever Foundation, a non-profit organization based in Seattle. A group of Nursing and Dental Hygiene students from SCC had the chance of a lifetime to see firsthand how simple healthcare practices can make a difference in impoverished communities.
Led by Shoreline faculty members Katie Fleming and Lisa Libassi, this two-week program enabled students to explore medical issues and disease treatment in an environment with limited equipment.
