Dental Health Campaign at Lapa Rios

With great joy, we want to share with you that last September we held, with great success, the Dental Health Campaign Carbonera - Carate.

This is the first campaign of its kind organized by Lapa Rios Ecolodge and we are proud to tell you that its impact was greater than we expected. 

This campaign directly impacted the children in all three schools in the area: La Carbonera, Río Oro and Río Piro and people in general from neighboring communities from Carbonera (where Lapa Rios Ecolodge is located) to Carate (one of the Corcovado National Park boundaries).

The operation was carried out by professionals in the area from ​​the University of Costa Rica who for three days donated their talents and time, working nonstop to try to take care as many people as possible. Thank you very much, Dr. Sonia Stradi, Dr. Jorge Soto and students Carolina, Itzel and Jose David.

We setup a mobile clinic near the Staff Area at Lapa Rios for the services.  A total of 67 people, children and adults, were attended to and who underwent a total of 221 different dental services.

Undoubtedly, this was possible thanks to the union and support of various companies in the area to whom we send a special thanks: El Remanso Rainforest Wildlife Lodge, Bosque del Cabo Rainforest Lodge, Nature Air and SANSA.
