Dental Hygiene in a Changing World
ADHA President Pam Quinones, RDH, BS, welcomed more than 250 attendees to the inaugural Dental Hygiene in a Changing World: Leading and Developing Your Career—a full day of insights and discussion geared toward re-envisioning and reengergizing participants’ careers that also included a track for students and hygienists new to the profession.
The symposium took place on February 25 in Chicago. Participants heard presentations from futurist Marcia Rhea, CAE; panelist Lillian Caperila, RDH, BSDH, Med; and ADHA Executive Director Ann Battrell, MSDH.
Also on the agenda were panel discussions, moderated by Quinones, that informed subsequent small group discussions among participants. Each panelist brought a wealth of information and experience from a different dental hygiene career pathway (see photo caption).
The event was supported by Johnson & Johnson Healthcare Products, A Division of McNeil-PPC, Inc. and Premier Dental Products.
In-depth coverage of the event’s content will appear in the May-June issue of Access.
