  11. Reporting Period • Learning year May 2010 to April 2011 • Feedback will be provided for all members based on the CCRs and PARs submitted • Subsequent to the initial year, allmembers will submit CCP documents to review for completion, but only a predetermined randomly selected proportion of members will undergo a full assessment/audit. • The Reporting Period Deadline will be defined as April 30th for the current CCP year

  12. Reporting Period • All members on the Practising Register as of April 30th must satisfy the required components • Continuing Competency Record (CCR) for each competency goal identified, and if applicable: • Professional Activity Record (PAR) describing participation in professional activities • Keep a personal copy of the forms/documents submitted • Please complete the declaration at the end of the CCR. Providing false or misleading information will be considered misconduct and may be subject to a Complaints/Disciplinary Committee Review • To ensure unbiased evaluation, please provide only your CDHM number on the CCR & PAR

  13. Late/Inadequate Submissions • Failure to meet CCP requirements by the reporting period deadline (April 30) = Late Fee of $100.00 • Failure to submit requirements by May 31, may be subject to an additional fine and disciplinary action • Members not meeting CCP requirements within 6 months of the reporting period deadline and want to remain on the Register of Dental Hygienists – Practising, must successfully complete one of the following: • Council-approved Competency Assessment or Refresher Education course in dental hygiene; or • The Canadian National Dental Hygiene Certification Examination (NDHCE)

  14. Late/Inadequate Submissions • Successful completion of an approved Competency Assessment, Refresher Course in dental hygiene or the NDHCB Examination will be considered valid for the purpose of registration for a period of 12 months following completion • For members failing to satisfy the above requirements, application for renewal will be denied

  15. Assessment of CCP Submissions • The individual member’s practice setting and environment will be considered when assessing CCP submissions • Competency activities carried out within 24 months of the reporting period deadline (April 30th) will be considered eligible • Members achieving more than two continuing competency goals in a given reporting year should submit the two goals of most priority or contributing most to competency

  16. Assessment of CCP Submissions • Assessment and feedback of CCP submissions will be conducted by trained CDHM Continuing Competency Assessors and provided to members • Random assessments/audits may be conducted to validate the information provided by members • Assessment Guidelines are being developed to assist with proper completion of forms The philosophy of the program is to facilitate and encourage rather than to discipline.

  17. Transferring to the Practising Register • Non-Practising members wishing to transfer to the Register of Dental Hygienists – Practising between May 1-October 31, are required to submit full CCP requirements • Non-Practicing members wishing to transfer to the Register of Dental Hygienists – Practising between November 1-April 30, are required to submit partial CCP requirements (one CCR/goal) • The above reporting policies will also apply to new members in their first reporting period • For the learning year of May 2010 to April 2011, full requirements will be required regardless of when a transfer or new application occurs

  18. Transferring to the Practising Register • Applicants for transfer who do not meet the required components of the CCP must provide evidence of successful completion of a Council-approved dental hygiene Competency Assessment or Refresher Education course; the course must have been completed no longer than 12 months prior to application for transfer • Non-practicing members are not required to report their continuing competency activities (but may contact the CDHM if they would like to do so)

  19. Professional Development Component • BEFORE: • Self-directed assessment • Goal development & activity planning • QUESTIONS to ask: • Why am I participating • in this activity? • What competency • need or interest do I • have that leads me • to this activity? • What is my competency • goal? Continuing Competency Activities Educational Courses/Seminars Online Courses Advanced Formal Education Professional Journals/ Articles Study or Journal Clubs Videos or DVDs (DVD Quarterly) • AFTER: • Evaluation • QUESTIONS to ask: • What did I learn? • Did the activities meet my goal? • What change(s) would I like to make? • What change(s) did I make? • Did it benefit my practice?

  20. Self-Directed Assessment

  21. Self Directed Assessment • Practice Problems and Reflection • Why did my patient’s periodontal status deteriorate? • Using The CDHM Competencies and Practice Standards • Eg. Assessment Competency #20 – Selects and uses appropriate oral health indices (PSR) • Questions, Discussions and External Feedback • Discussions, questions and feedback from peers, employers, clients • External Feedback Form • Evidence-based Practice • Reading professional journals – disconnect between research and current practice

  22. Goal Development & Activity Planning

  23. Goal Development and Activity Planning • Goal Development • Perceived practice deficiency or area of need • Objectives • Mini-goals • Potential Activities • What you choose based on resources • Location • Time • Finances

  24. Activity Implementation & Evaluation

  25. Activity Implementation & Evaluation • Implement Activities • Educational Course/Seminars (MDHA) • Online Courses (CDHA) • Professional Journals/Articles • Study or Journal Clubs • Videos/DVDs (DVD Quarterly) • Advanced Formal Education • Other • Evaluate Achievement of Continuing Competency Goals • Goal is met, unmet or in process

  26. My Real-Life Example • Self-directed assessment: • My clothes are not fitting properly anymore • I am not happy with the way I look • Goal Development: • I would like to lose 20 pounds by May • Activity Planning • Join the YMCA to take scheduled classes • Treadmill at home regularly • Drink more water • Evaluation • Not drinking enough water – try harder • Not doing so well – focus on making exercise a priority

  27. Dental Hygiene Example • Self-directed assessment: • Multiple patients are inquiring about over-the-counter whitening products (toothpastes, other applications) • I am not as familiar with the new products as I should be (i.e. efficacy, safety, costs) and I am not sure how to advise them • Goal Development: • I would like to acquire knowledge about teeth whitening and apply that knowledge to my clinical practice • Activity Planning • Walk through dental section at Shoppers Drug Mart to see what is being marketed • Research products online (e.g. PubMed) • Read journal article from The Journal of Dental Hygiene • Attend course being offered by MDHA • Research dental companies • Evaluation • Information gained and can speak knowledgeably to patients

  28. Let’s Look at the Forms - CCR • 1 CCR submitted for each goal identified • Complete the questions asked • Check boxes • Short answer • Declaration

  29. Professional Participation Component • Purpose: To encourage members to be engaged in the profession • Provide information on professional activity participated in: • Attending professional meetings (CDHM, MDHA) • Volunteering on professional committees , councils, boards • Providing information sessions, workshops, courses (professional or community) • Be a dental hygiene mentor (MDHA/SDH mentorship program) • Volunteering for existing community outreach programs

  30. Let’s Look at the Forms - PAR • 1 page • Check boxes • Short answer

  31. Additional Considerations • Current professional work description • Anticipate future practice environment(s) • Most recent workplace performance evaluation • Staff meetings discussions • Feedback, discussion and questions from colleagues and clients • Consider your own learning style

  32. CCP package • Sections: • Introduction & General Policies • Professional Development Component: (Blue) • Professional Participation Component: (Purple) • Appendices/Sample Forms (yellow) • Continuing Competency Record (CCR) (Blue) • Professional Activity Record (PAR) (Purple)

  33. The CDHM in no way intends to limit participation in continuing competency activities, the development of practice goals or changes to practice through the implementation of the CCP. Dental hygienists are encouraged to participate in supplementary continuing competency activities that may not be directly related to continuing competency goals, develop additional goals and implement practice change beyond that required by the CCP. • To keep abreast of developments within the profession of dental hygiene, RDHs have a basic professional responsibility to read professional oral health journals and newsletters and to keep abreast of developments within the profession of dental hygiene
