Standards of Practice Consultation is Now Open!
Alberta College of Dental Hygienists
Consultation is now open! Provide your feedback on seven draft Standards of Practice by July 3.
Registered dental hygienists, dental hygiene students, other registered health professionals, and interested members of the public are encouraged provide their feedback on the draft Standards of Practice. Feedback will be used to shape and revise the draft Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics.
After reviewing feedback from registrants and others, College staff will review the drafts for clarity, scope, and completeness. Then, the drafts will be shared with the Government of Alberta. The final versions will be approved by Council, which is made up of members of the public and registrants.
Once approved by Council, the new Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics go into effect and registrants will be expected to understand and adhere to them.
