 Hello everybody, Andrea here with dental L so have you been audited so your CDHO number if it ends in four or nine you have been audited okay. So let me help you guys, it does not have to be stressful, so if you want to join me February, what did I say February 7 which is a Sunday. i'm going to have a full session on the practice profile i'm going to have a full session on your. Learning activities and how to write goal statements Okay, so this will be big, so this is for those of you who are looking to write your portfolio, so when you are audited you have two choices, you can write your portfolio. submit it, or you can take the quality assurance exam Okay, so this will be specifically for those of you. Who want to write the portfolio and submit your portfolio, but this will also be for everybody, the first portion. We will be talking about the practice profile, it does not have to be stressful, so how does this work, so the first portion. i'm going to talk to you guys about the practice profile because this applies for everybody every dental hygienist has to submit their practice profile. But you might be very confused on how to go about that it does take preparation, so I go specifically through. All of the short answer questions I go through all of them actually, but I talked to you guys about the short answer questions first, because those are what most hygienists have trouble with. And there is some preparation that will need to be done if you realize you're not doing everything you should be doing for best practice. So I go through the dental unit water lines, I go through handpiece maintenance. I go through sterilizing and I go through what do you do if your sterilizer is recalled, so those are the main short answer questions that I go through. Plus I go through if you work in multiple practices because your practice profile will need to be written in a certain way, if you work for multiple practices. So that will be our first session practice profile, and then if you want to join our next session that day that will be on specifically writing the portfolio so you're you're learning activities how to write goals what makes a good goal what makes a not so good goal and you'll have to change that. I go through your learning activities and how to write bibliographies for them, depending on what the learning activity is from so if you're taking webinars or. Listening to them if you're reading your textbook if you're taking online courses I go through how to write out your learning activities. bibliography perfectly, so you don't get that phone call from the CDHO, but I also go through goal statements what makes a good one, what makes a bad one. I go through your reports on learning so in that area, you have to write down what you have learned. Since taking whatever course your goal is from plus what changes you have made to your practice, so I go through both of them. I go through what makes good report on learning what makes bad ones and what the CDHO wants to see to pass your audit, so this is a bigger one where we go through everything. You can have your portfolio done and your practice profile done before the summer before. Can I even say COVID lessons things a little bit so we're able to go out get things done while you're in lockdown, so you don't have to worry about it later. Trust me on this this happens every year, you have your best of intentions to be organized, but then you're not organized and then come Christmas time you're like Okay, I have to get this done i've been putting it putting it off putting it off. Get it done now Okay, so this will be for everybody who you know we all have to write our practice profiles every year, so that will be the first live class the second live. class will be about your portfolio, how to go through all of that Okay, plus there will be a course for both so it's not just a session where we talk about it, if you cannot attend live. There will be a a session recording that i'm going to upload inside your courses, and this will include support by me, so I can help you guys answer questions. We all probably have this you know you all probably have the same questions i'm going to go through all of that with you. So get it done in February, so you guys don't have to worry throughout the year Okay, I will leave the links for you guys at the bottom. super easy to sign up you guys will have everything and full support by me plus there is also an option for me to review your practice profile. And review your portfolio when you're done to make sure you're on the right track, so thank you guys so much for listening, I will hopefully see you guys in February see you very, very soon.
