Icecream truck medical care…might be a solution to some of our health care woes.
Anyone who has worked an ER in a major hospital knows the majority of patients have a non emergent illness..ie a cold , the flu, a minor laceration, abrasion ..these illnesses could best be served by a mobile medical care unit..the same could be applied to dentistry..in fact this idea has already been implemented…by companies throughout the land..see link below ..

One way to stream line the process would be to have nurse practitioners treat the less challenging cases and if there were something that stumped them they could have a diagnostician ready via video conferencing to assist..It’s time we come up with some creative ways to solve our health care woes,,more convenient, quicker ,cheaper care, lower over head, more folks could have health care available..everybody wins..the time has come..

I can’t decide if the idea of a van driving around playing “Turkey in the Straw” trying to entice people into running to the curb for medical attention is amusing or alarming.

OK Ken fast forward a few decades down the road, you’re watching Die Hard 12..Bruce Willis is teaching his grand son how to be a “Stop the Terrorists Cop” you crunch down on a piece of pop corn and that back molar finally chips off and you are you are in pain..

You can’t drive and your friends have all died..film critic is a lonely business..
Then gently the chiming of “All I want for Xmas is my two Front Teeth” comes wafting through your trailer door.

You run to the corner with your hot 56 dollars in hand 30 minutes later you stagger back to your now ancient plasma, and gear up to watch “Harry Potter meets the Terminator”.

It could be a beautiful thing.
