WORKSHOP: Navigating the Temping Landscape (Room Texas 3)

01 Aug 19
10:30 AM - 12:30 PM

Tracks: Workshop

An increasing number of dental hygienists now work in temporary positions rather than permanent employment settings. Temping has always been an option for new graduates. An increasing number of hygienists now earn income as a temp when family obligations shift, they relocate to a new community, when long-term employer retires, or a new boss changes the practice dynamics. Working as a temporary presents the hygienist with a whole different set of options and challenges. Every practice is different, and every day is different. Some hygienists love the freedom of temping and others dread the unknown. Temping can provide great learning experiences and can be a wonderful networking platform. It is a great way to hone your healthcare provider philosophy and exercise your professional flexibility. Attendees will be armed with strategies that minimize the bumps in the road and maximize the unique benefits of not being tied to the same routine every day. Leave with your own practical, strategic roadmap for temping success!
