I am using the grant writing training, but I am also interested in all of the community material that you have available. I believe that the material here will help me become more involved in my small community and also more valuable to the hospital. Knowledge is power. Thanks! |

I am a MS candidate in dental hygiene at the University of New Mexico, currently creating my graduate project and would like to discuss creating a Workstation to incorporate in my project design. Collaborative practice dental hygiene (an alternative-independent model of practice) was passed in 2000, as means to address access to care (NM ranks 49th in the US Dental Health Professions Shortage Areas designated by HRSA). UNM's Dental Hygiene Program is associated with the medical school (no dental school in NM) this project has the opportunity to explore addressing oral/general health related conditions with interdisciplinary role socialization of advanced dental hygiene practice, integrating oral-systemic care with primary care. It has the potential to influence both the education of nursing and dental hygiene students etc. and delivery of care in hospital, clinic and private practice settings. |
The next NM State legislative session will consider the feasibility of a study for advanced dental hygiene practitioner-this would be the ideal vehicle to connect research, education and practice as NM seeks to solve health care delivery/quality problems. |
