The BC Association of Clinical Counsellors (BCACC) and the BC Dental Hygienists Association (BCDHA) are pleased to introduce a comprehensive set of resources designed to support dental hygienists in offering trauma-informed services to patients who experience anxiety and mental discomfort during dental visits.
The resources include a new website and supplementary materials designed to help patients reduce anxiety while also providing dental hygienists with the tools to offer supportive care during dental visits.
“These new resources were developed collaboratively by the BCACC and the BCDHA to enhance the trauma-informed practices of dental hygienists,” stated Michael Radano, Chief Executive Officer of the BCACC. “The BCACC aims to collaborate with other health professionals and organizations to improve the public’s experience when receiving health services.”
