Presented by: Noel Brandon-Kelsch, RDHAP
In the diverse settings dental professionals serve cultural awareness and understanding of special needs are vital parts of the dental professional’s role in education and treatment. Noel Kelsch has “gone where no man would go” to serve a variety of populations. She has taken her backpack out onto the streets reaching out to those who have no place to call home and run free dental clinics for over 20 years. She has developed comprehensive treatment plan that addresses the issue of prevention and understanding for both the professional and the patient. “Noel’s course gave me the understanding I needed to serve any population in any setting. Her passion for helping others is contagious” Lynn R.  Noel said “if we all each do one small thing it can become one very big thing. She then gave me all the information to start doing that one small thing right now!” David M.
