Patients be patient: the dental department at Majuro hospital will soon resume services, possibly as early as later this week.

The temporary halt to full services at the hospital’s dental clinic since the week prior to Christmas was to install new equipment to improve patient services.

Patient chairs have already been installed and Ministry of Health and Human Services indicated that final touches on the new equipment are being worked on. A training for dental staff on the new equipment will be conducted prior to resumption of full services.
