- W2189175694 abstract "Aims: To assess the accessibility of a dental service in a dental clinic and a homeless drop-in centre in Dublin for people affected by homelessness, evaluate current referral patterns and investigate the level of methadone use in the population and corresponding use of drug services. Material and methods: A review was conducted of a comprehensive database of all 237 patient dental records using simple inclusion criteria. Comparisons were made with data from a general survey of homeless people in Dublin. Results: Showed 163 men and 74 women had attended, with a modal age range of 25–34 years. Only 16% of patients were over 40 years of age, of which only 6% were females. The main source of referral was from the homeless drop-in centre, in which the clinic is situated (39%); hostels referred 19% and day centres 12%. Previous input from the dental team into the centres through education, health promotion or screening improved the number of referrals. 61% of the patients were attending for treatment in methadone clinics. Conclusions: As the homeless population is not homogenous the targeting of services to certain sub-sets of this population is necessary, such as people over 40 years of age and women with families in bed and breakfast accommodation. Health education and screening can promote access to dental services. Finally, an interdisciplinary approach is essential so that an oral health assessment can be included in the initial assessments made by community welfare officers, hostel staff and drug centre workers." @default.
