- DH Clinical Calibration & Mindfulness in Dental Hygiene Education Workshop (4 ceu’s) Tuesday, July 21, 2026, 1:15-5:15 PM
Course Presenter: Deborah Holexa, RDH, MS & Team FREE WORKSHOP
To qualify for this FREE workshop, you must be enrolled in at least one paid course. This workshop includes activities in DH Clinical Calibration for Dental Hygiene educators and also mindfulness techniques to incorporate into your classes. The Dental Hygiene Accreditation Standard 1.2 invites dental hygiene programs to “commit to a humanistic culture” and to “ensure collaboration, mutual respect, cooperation, and harmonious relationships between and among administrators, faculty, students, staff, and alumni.”
The success of all health care providers hinges on patient satisfaction. Research in dentistry shows that patient satisfaction is not based on quality of technical care, but rather, on the quality of the clinician-patient relationship and the level of comfort during care. There is much anxiety around dental visits; how does one stay connected with a patient during a procedure that induces pain or arouses anxiety? Patient-centered care requires more than just saying and doing the right thing- it requires presence – mindful presence, characterized by qualities such as calm, attentiveness, and empathy. Class limited to 30 participants
