A free health and dental pre-screening clinic will take place Thursday in the Dysartsville community.

The clinic will be held between 3 and 5 p.m. Thursday at the Dysartsville Trinity United Methodist Church, located at 174 Trinity Loop Lane. Free self-care kits with personal hygiene items will also be distributed by the clinic, while they last, according to a news release.

A representative from the Collins Dental Bus will offer free pre-screenings to people needing teeth extracted or fillings replaced. Additional dental clinics are scheduled for April 13 and April 19, requiring pre-screening for an appointment.

The Community Care Paramedic Program of McDowell EMS will also be in Dysartsville at the pre-screening to check blood pressure and blood sugar levels. Other county agencies will be represented at the clinic and information about medical and dental insurance for low-income families will be available.

“You do not need to be insured to take part in the clinic,” reads the news release. “All are welcome.”
