On Friday, November 3, 2023, the Arkansas Chapter of the ICD will host the 2nd Operation Stand Down, a dental mission dedicated to treating our nation’s veterans. As with last year, the six hosts will be:
Dr. Ned Alley, Little Rock
Dr. Troy Bartels, Jonesboro
Dr. David Bell, Arkadelphia
Dr. Angela Broomfield and Dr. Kristen Beavers, Fayetteville
Dr. Cara Jones, Pine Bluff
Dr. Charlie Liggett and Dr. Cole Johnson, Fort Smith
Last year’s event was successful and generated a great deal of public interest. The organizers anticipate a jump in participation this year and expect a need for more volunteers, so please consider volunteering either a half day or full day at one of these six sites. The location is strictly up to you, although the staffing needs at each site varies.
Treatment and services provided will primarily address chief complaints/pain, and the Arkansas ICD will appoint veterans to minimum hour-long appointments to prevent waiting, lines, etc. Volunteer cost is travel and time.
Please contact Dr. R. Mark Bailey at dr.markbailey@gmail.com if you want to participate. Please specify your site preference and how many auxiliaries (RDA and RDH) will accompany you.
For more questions, contact Dr. Bailey through his email or at 479-207-0205.
