How can I find patients for clinic days when I attend school miles away from home and do not know many people in that area?

Try seniors centres - retired people have the time to spend at the long appointments and they often have interesting mouths. They also appreciate the minimal cost involved in having their teeth cleaned.

WHen I was in school I put up flyers in laundromats, and in offices where people go to to look for work

Hi, Sometimes the school has lists of pt.'s that they have come in for appts. Also, ask family mem's and offer to pay for the prophy, etc....and buy them lunch sometime! Ask others on campus (friends, teachers, etc...) to come in....down the line you may even find your board pt.! GL
