UMMC Project ECHO Series- Dentistry
2025-08-22 12:00 - 13:00 (America/Chicago)
Program Overview
The purpose of the dentistry learning community model (DLCM) is to provide patient case-based information to pediatric dentists, general dentists, and nurses practicing in rural communities. In a needs assessment survey of rural Mississippi dentists, education in pediatric dentistry was a high priority area of need identified by the participants. The DLCM will enhance the care capabilities of rural dentists nd nurses by focusing on a major disease burden – childhood dental caries. Health care providers (dentists and nurses) need to be aware of current best practices for enhancing the care capabilities of rural dentists and nurses by focusing on a major disease burden.
Topics Covered

Pragmatic Oral Surgery for the General Dentist
Diagnosing Oral Cancer
Digital Workflow in Restorative Dentistry

Target Audience

Dentists
Pediatric Dentists
Dental Assistants
Dental Hygienists
Primary Care Providers
Nurses

UMMC & Hometown Pediatric Dermatology - ECHO Series
2025-09-03 12:00 - 13:00 (America/Chicago)
Overview: This project aims to improve the treatment of pediatric skin conditions including eczema, acne, birthmarks, warts, and other pediatric skin diseases with the intended target audience of rural healthcare providers in the Upper Midwest. Since over 30% of visits to primary care for children, a skin-related complaint is noted, and for nearly 60% of those patients, it is their chief complaint; this ECHO aims to expand expertise for pediatricians, family medicine physicians, and APPs in assessing and treating pediatric skin conditions. Primary care professionals join board-certified pediatric dermatologists to discuss best practices and evidence-based approaches to pediatric skin disease and create an ongoing learning collaborative to empower primary care clinicians to deliver high-quality skin disease treatment. Each session consists of a mini-lecture followed by a discussion of attendee-provided patient cases with a pediatric dermatologist. Early access to expert care saves lives, reduces healthcare costs, and improves access to care for children and teens. There are fewer than 400 board-certified, practicing pediatric dermatologists in the United States, with zero in Montana, North Dakota, or South Dakota; and one in Idaho and Wyoming, in some states, such as Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Michigan there are a few pediatric dermatologists, but they are clustered in urban areas. The distances are often too far for families to reasonably travel to seek specialty care, given the size of the states and the challenges with winter weather (which lasts for up to 6 months per year).
Topics Covered

Atopic Dermatitis
Topical treatments for pediatric and adolescent acne
Seborrheic Dermatitis
Molluscum Contagiosum
Moles and Sun Protection
Impetigo

Link: https://iecho.org/public/program/PRGM1701792008640ZWOPNQ6LUA
Target Audience: Pediatric and Family Primary care clinicians, nurses or other interested healthcare providers in areas with limited pediatric dermatology access across the Upper Midwest. There is no geographic restriction for participation.
Community Clinicians will get CME/CEU in a virtual learning network through the University of Mississippi Medical Center.
The planners and speaker for today have no relevant financial relationships to disclose.
