Oral health promotions, education, and overall wellness via text messaging. A.T. on more than 200 acres with six prestigious schools.
Still University (ATSU) is the original founding institution of osteopathic healthcare, established in 1892 by Andrew Taylor Still. As a leading health sciences university, ATSU is comprised of two campuses (Kirksville, Mo., and Mesa, Ariz.) Learning environments include residential and online medical degrees as well as community-based partnerships worldwide. ATSU has more than 700 employees dedicated to its not-for-profit mission and an average annual enrollment of over 3,100 students from 35 countries. Still University (ATSU) has teamed with CellTrust Corporation, provider of the patented SecureSMS Platform, to devise a series of text message programs designed to reach, educate, and remind current patients and the underserved of our communities about preventative and ongoing initiatives of health and wellness. The Arizona School of Dentistry & Oral Health along with the founder, Dr. Tony Hashemian, have spearheaded the Text2Floss initiative to raise awareness about the importance of oral health and to introduce flossing as an important part of daily hygiene. The implications of these types of messaging services are as far reaching and diverse as the varying specializations in the field of health and medicine; from pediatrics to geriatrics and from mental health and wellness to nutrition. Oral health promotions via texting have the potential to be a great tool to educate and improve the health of individuals in the global community in a cost effective way. Text messaging is an invaluable and effective tool for delivery of health information and education.
