On Friday February 6, 2009 Dr. Godsey, Dr. Gandini and the staff volunteered their time to participate in the Give Kids a Smile campaign. This program is a national campaign to provide access to dental care for children. This is our 6th year participating in this worth while cause. Dr. Godsey, Dr. Gandini and the staff screened roughly 80 children.

Dr. Godsey, Dr. Gandini and the staff have been very busy lately taking part in some awesome training. On November 19, 2008 Dr. Godsey, Dr. Gandini and the staff renewed their CPR certification through the American Heart Association and then on December 4, 2008 we went through our annual OSHA and HIPAA training with Total Compliance.

We are so proud to annouce that on October 29, 2008 Dr. Godsey & Dr. Gandini received their ACLS (Advanced Cardiac Life Support) certification. This was a 2-day intense training designed to teach healthcare providers how to recognize and initiate treatment for pre-arrest situations that may lead to cardiac arrest. This a great acheivement that allows us to take the care of our patients a step further.

In an effort to create opportunities for students and teachers, Dr. Godsey and his wife Paula sponsored the Walk/5K Race for Education with the Chapel Hill - Carrboro Public School Foundation. This is the third year that Dr. Godsey and Paula have been able to take part in this wonderful event.
