Why would I want to join WSDHA/ADHA?
WSDHA is 85 years of dental hygienists working together to established the educational programs and standards from which you have benefited. We still currently enjoy the broadest scope of practice in the country.
Career options to serve children and seniors; to provide services to state and federal facilities, nursing homes and group facilities on your own. In 2007 WSDHA succeeded in acquiring for hygienists the ability for hygienists working in school sealant programs to clean children's teeth and for current practitiioners to serve seniors in Senior Centers. This is your professional association at work.The simple answer is that being a member of a professional association is what professionals do and membership is your affordable profession insurance.
Protection of your profession. Membership ensures current educational standards, and prevents encroachment on your scope of practice by unlicensed persons. There are new challenges every year and WSDHA is your eye on Olympia, representing your interests as a professional.
WSDHA welcomes new leadership and new ideas that will enhance the profession and move forward into the future. Hygienists in Washington consider WSDHA the "voice of dental hygiene" in this state. Membership means that you are paying for what you count on.
