Produce Masks for Healthcare Workers on the Frontlines of COVID-19
Summary
In the wake of COVID-19, the school continues to deliver on its commitment to community by bolstering local efforts to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. Diman Regional has also donated to local facilities all of the personal protective equipment, or PPE, that the school reserves for the purpose of training students in its dental, health, and medical-assisting vocational-training programs. “The leadership is unbelievable at our school; our administrators went through every program that we offer to see what we had, and donated all of the PPE to local hospitals and nursing homes.” The full-face shield masks produced at Diman Regional consist of headbands that are fitted with sheets of plastic that can be sterilized and reused by healthcare facilities. The school has used ALPHACAM as a teaching tool for more than a decade, and has brought CABINET VISION, also by Hexagon Production Software, online as an instructional aid over the last couple of years. Diman Regional drafting instructors Chris Padula and Mitch Sweet lead volunteer efforts to produce both headbands and ear guards using the school’s 3D laser printers.
