Rally Day 2011

I thought that Rally Day was pretty interesting, I was not sure what to expect but it turned out to be fun. I think that as a future dental hygienist I need to be well aware of the laws and bills trying to be passed as far as the whole field of dentistry is concerned. Also, I think that in the future if there is a new bill trying to be passed that I am either for or against I need to take part and let my voice be heard. Dental hygiene is my future and is going to help provide for my future family. As a dental hygienist, it is a person's job to teach the public about how important oral hygiene is. So many people are unaware of the role it plays in their health. That should be part of every dental hygienists job, even though I am sure some do not do so.
   I enjoyed watching the session from the balcony and even though I was not sure of most of what they were talking about, it was nice to see how things work. I however, am glad that is not my job. Next year will be better for me because I will have a feel of how things work instead of it being brand new.

  1. As a health care provider you will advocate for your patients. You are the future of dental hygiene in our communities.
