Stay curious in your dental hygiene career
Amanda Hill spoke at the Under One Roof mega session about the importance of finding your curiousty in your dental hygiene career. How did she get her idea? It came when she spoke at a dental hygiene graduation ceremony a few years ago. This got her thinking about what traits a dental hygienist needs to be successful.
Every trait she thought of led back to curiosity ... in ourself, our profession, our education, our patients, and finally, in our team. Amanda believes this mindset will lead to a successful career.
Others liked what she had to say, and encouraged to develop her ideas and wisdom into a bigger presentation, which evolved into her speaking at UOR.
Find out how being curious will keep you from becoming stuck in your career as Amanda and I chat about her ideas.
