Notes from the Nurse
IMPORTANT UPCOMING DATES:
Students in grades 1st through 5th also have the opportunity to participate in a NO COST Fluoride Rinse Program. Students will “Swish and Spit” for 1 minute each Friday in their classrooms. Fluoride rinse is safe and effective for reducing tooth decay. Some communities in our area have fluorinated water, but those with well-water systems generally do not contain or contain less than the recommended fluoride to help prevent tooth decay. If you wish to participate, please fill out the form and return it to school or nurse’s office.
The Oneida County Health Department will be at MJ1 Schools on October 23 for a Flu Clinic from 3:30pm-5:30pm. Oneida County bills Security Health Plan, UMR, United Healthcare, Medicare/Medicare Advantage plans, and Medicaid/BadgerCare. Card must be present at time of service. Cash or checks are also accepted. Children 18 and under are FREE and must have a guardian present. For more information, please call (715) 369-6111.
QUAD $40
High Dose $73.00
Northwoods Dental Project will be at MJ1 on November 14-15 to provide free oral health exams, fluoride varnish and dental sealants at no cost to all 2nd and 6th graders. This is a free preventative dental sealant program which is funded by the Wisconsin Seal-A-Smile, a collaborative program of Children’s Health Alliance of Wisconsin and Wisconsin Department of Health services. The program includes: assessment to determine if sealants can be done, sealants if appropriate, fluoride treatments and tooth brushing instructions. Even if you have a dental provider, the cost of dental sealants and fluoride varnish can add up. If you would like your student to participate, please fill out the form (click here) and return it to the school or nurse’s office by November 11.
Any questions please contact Pam Holtz, (715) 356-5206 x2204, or pholtz@mhlt.org.
