Our missions and goals: • • • • • •

Set high quality evidence based standards for the profession Provide communication and support to members Provide evidence based professional development Promote optimal general health through the provision of quality oral health services by dental hygienists, dental therapists and oral health therapists Advance tertiary and post-graduate education and research Abide by principles of effective, transparent, ethical and financial governance

OUR ORGANISATION The Dental Hygienists Association of Australia Ltd is the national peak professional body representing dental hygienists, dental therapists, and oral health therapists in Australia. DHAA members are registered dental practitioners with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency. Their scope of practice includes provision of oral health assessment, diagnosis, treatment, management and education for the prevention of oral disease to promote healthy oral behaviours.

DHAA provides support and advice to its members, and collaborates with other health professional groups and stakeholders to strive for better access and optimal dental care for all Australians.

The National Association was formed in 1991 and the Board meets four times a year to address issues relating to the uniformity of practice and training throughout Australia, and to plan for the continuing growth and application of the profession. Through this continued growth and development, the DHAA is able to provide high- quality and relevant member benefits, which include:

Member exclusive professional indemnity insurance The DHAA has an exclusive agreement with BMS, providing a comprehensive and affordable professional indemnity insurance option for its members.

Member benefits program

Industrial relations advice

This program entitles members to a broad range of travel, retail, finance, professional services and automotive discounts.

Hygienists and OHTs have lots of questions about contracts and employment conditions – DHAA members can access free legal advice through our Industrial Relations Advisory Service.

Continuing Professional Development DHAA Members have access to a comprehensive and highly flexible CPD program that comprises of:

• • • • • • •

Online interactive live webinars

On demand podcasts

Hands on workshops

Study clubs

Local face to face CPD meetings at all states and territories

Off shore seminars

Annual national symposium

The program is designed to offer a variety of topics and learning modes that will meet the needs of members at all stages of their career. Many CPD events also offer great opportunity for members to catch up and build their professional networks.

Built into the CPD program are supplementary activities such as leadership training, mentoring and career development initiatives throughout the year.

Regular communication about the profession Besides CPD, DHAA members receive our eBulletin four times a year, as well as regular electronic messages to keep them updated with issues affecting oral health and our profession. We also have a constant presence on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and LinkedIn.

Advocacy for the profession The DHAA regularly presents submissions to the Dental Board, Australian Dental Council, Fair Work Australia, Royal Commissions, State and Commonwealth Governments and other key stakeholders in matters affecting our profession and the oral health of the public.

Collaborations Creating connections with health promotion campaigns such as “Rethink Sugary Drink” and organisations such as the National Aged Care Alliance help to promote our profession to the wider public, and allow DHAA members the opportunity to be involved in the broader health sector.

Support for special interest groups Currently we have groups focusing on Aged Care, Rural and Remote Health, and Oral Health Promotion and Public Health. They provide a forum for DHAA members to meet and share their passion and expertise in their area of interest. Through these groups DHAA fosters advocacy, research and capacity building for the dental profession.

International connections The DHAA is an Association member of the International Federation of Dental Hygienists, and represents Australia at the House of Delegates (the IFDH governing body). The IFDH hold an International

Conference every three years, which gives members the opportunity to connect with oral health professionals all around the globe, learn from prominent experts and sightsee in some amazing locations. We are proud to host the 2019 International Symposium on Dental Hygiene in Brisbane!

Member logo Members can add weight to their professional profile by using the logo on their practice websites or newsletters to display their DHAA membership.

 

 

THE BOARD The DHAA Board is run and managed by a team of eager and willing volunteers. These individuals happily give up their valuable spare time to ensure the smooth-running of the Association, the well-being of our members and the future of our profession.

PRESIDENT REPORT

It is with pleasure that I write this report on behalf of the DHAA Board of Directors for the 2018-19 financial year.

Improved governance through ongoing Board training.

Our most significant change for this year was the change in CEO, with Melanie Hayes stepping down from the role in January 2019, and Bill Suen coming on board in May 2019. Bill has brought with him a wealth of knowledge and experience in the professional association sector, and we look forward to his help in taking the DHAA to the next level.

I would like to make special mention of outgoing staff and long time volunteers Melanie Hayes (CEO) and Amelia Munn (Membership Officer) and to also specifically thank outgoing Board Director, and President, Kathryn Novak (ACT). The DHAA could not achieve all it does without our valued volunteers. I wish you all well in your new roles and future endeavours.

Cheryl Dey National President

CEO REPORT I am delighted to present my first CEO report for DHAA. Since my commencement in May, I have been on an extremely steep learning curve to try to learn as much about the organisation and the dental profession. I am most impressed with the ability of this association to offer a wide range of relevant member services and advocacy activities with very little resource available. This is only made possible by the tireless work of the staff, the directors, state and SIG chairs, employment and communication officers, together with many members volunteering their precious time.

Over the past 12 months the national CPD program is taking shape with regular online live webinars and on demand podcasts available for members across the country. These are complemented by local CPD events organised by state and territory committees.

On the advocacy front, DHAA has been an ongoing contributor to advise on a range of consultations with the Dental Board and Dental Council, as well as collaborating with other organisation in advocating for oral health promotion and improved access to dental services.

Our ongoing work to keep Dental Hygienists and Oral health Therapists award free in order to protect the remuneration of our profession has intensified and we are hoping for a positive outcome by early 2020.

We are also looking forward to the outcome of the Dental Board review the scope of practice for Dental Hygienists, Dental Therapists and Oral Health Therapists towards the end of 2019.

DHAA continues to develop relevant services to support our members. In 2018/2019, we piloted a mentoring program that supports early career members to progress their career in their selected field. This pilot is being reviewed and will be incorporated into a new leadership development initiative in 2020.

We also established the Oral Health Promotion and Public Health group to support our strategic goals in evidence based practice and health promotion. The group is in the process of formulating the oral health promotion priorities and developing our consumer website.

Website development is an integral part of the DHAA digital transformation plan instigated by the board. A significant amount of resource has been allocated to this project and we are expected to see the new digital platform to be launched for members at the beginning of 2020.

Significant work has also been done in the development of board and management policies and procedures in accordance to best governance practice.

Our membership continues to grow together with a steady increase in the uptake of our products and services.

We also built many more bridges with other likeminded organisations and undertook many

collaborative projects both at national and state levels.

I believe DHAA has every element that is required for a successful not for profit membership organisation. It has undergone organisational transformation over the past few years and is now developing into a cohesive, efficient and learning organisation.

I would like to express my thanks my predecessor Dr Melanie Hayes for her leadership and hard work for DHAA’s success. My gratitude also goes to Cheryl Dey our president, the board, the staff and the state chairs, committees and SIGs whose warm welcome, advice and support make my past few months at DHAA so satisfying and enjoyable. I feel very privileged to have the opportunity to work in such an impressive organisation and with such remarkable people.

Together we will build on our past success and continue to innovate and improve our services to our members, the dental profession, and ultimately supporting our members to improve the health of the Australian public.

CPD It has been an exciting year for my last year as CPD chair. With the on the ground support of countless volunteers from the eight state and territory committees, we managed to continue to improve our CPD offer to meet the varying needs of its members in 2018/2019. Over this period, DHAA provided a total of 55 CPD events, with attendance at a record high of 4,800. This is a 58% increase from last period.

In order to meet a range of preferences and demands, the CPD program included a balanced mix of full day, half day and dinner lectures and hands on workshops. Some Mental Health First Aid Training sessions were also included in response to members’ feedback.

Substantial efforts were made to bring face-to-face CPD sessions to regional locations such as Alice Spring, Hunter Valley, Wollongong, Victor Harbour and Barossa Valley. From our strategic planning we wanted to provide members with quality CPD and in the subjects and formats that appeal to them. Each state and territory held a hands on GC workshop and we are still road-showing Hu-Friedy workshops for instrumentation and ergonometric. We have worked hard to make sure that the CPD is varied and appeals to our members that work as hygienists or OHTs in both private and public locations.

DHAA held its first-ever overseas event in Bali last year. It was a success and we are excited to be heading back there again this year.

There was a shift towards online live webinars that offer flexibility and convenience for members to participate without the need to travel.

The interactive live webinars are very effective to deliver CPD to members regardless of their location with nearly 3000 attendees for the 11 webinars delivered over a 12-month period. All webinars were recorded and made available for members to view at their convenience for two years.

DHAA is grateful for the generous support from industry partners. Besides financial support to make many CPD events affordable and accessible, they also provide valuable and timely updates to new products and practice advancements.

The DHAA CPD program is no doubt a team effort of staff, volunteers, industry partners, and the ongoing support of DHAA members. The DHAA would like to thank everyone for making it possible and such a success for all to enjoy.

I have had a fantastic two and half years as the national CPD chair and I am proud to be part of such an amazing team of state chairs and committee volunteers. We have all worked extremely hard to put the many CPD events on and reach as many members as possible with varied locations and themes

all while maintaining a high quality of continuing

education. I would like to take this time to thank everyone who was involved with organising and running the events across Australia and to all the members who have attended and help make the days a great learning experience for everyone.

Thank you everyone for your support and I am excited to see what the new CPD chair will bring to the role and the continued evolution and growth of the CPD portfolio.

Tabitha Acret National CPD Chair

RURAL & REMOTE SIG The Rural and Remote Special Interest Group held its inaugural meeting via ZOOM video conference in August 2018, with DHAA members from VIC, ACT, NT, WA, NSW and SA in attendance. The group covered a range of relevant topics including oral health promotion within the Royal Flying Doctor Service, CPD for rural members, access to dental treatment under the National Disability Insurance Scheme, Remote Area Health Corps, and oral health for renal patients within rural dialysis centres. The DHAA would like to encourage more rural and remote based DHAA members to become involved in this special interest group. Please register your interest by emailing Cathryn Carboon at cathcarboon@bigpond.com

SARRAH Services for Australian Rural and Remote Allied Health, is a national multidisciplinary member association, supporting allied health professionals to improve health outcomes in rural and remote communities throughout Australia.

SARRAH will celebrate 25 years of advocacy in 2020 and is the only peak body to be fully focused on rural and remote allied health working across all disciplines, including oral health. Cathryn Carboon is a long-term member of SARRAH and represents the DHAA at SARRAH National

Conferences, held every two years. Cathryn presented at the 2018 National Conference and attend the AGM in Darwin. SARRAH’s past conference recommendations have recognised the integral role of dental hygienists within the oral healthcare team, as part of a comprehensive primary healthcare model in rural and remote Australia.

Health Workforce Scholarship Program In 2017 the Health Workforce Scholarship Program (HWSP) was launched by the Australian Government Department of Health. The HWSP is managed nationally by the Rural Workforce Agency Network, with $33.3 million dollars allocated over 3 years for CPD grants and postgraduate scholarships.

Oral health professionals who provide services to MMM 3-7 rural or remote communities are eligible to apply. The HWSP guidelines and eligibility criteria can be viewed at the website: www.healthworkforce.com.au

Who is the Tooth Fairy’s best friend?

The children’s picture book “Who is the Tooth Fairy’s best friend?” written by Cathryn Carboon, was reprinted by the DHAA in 2018 and sold at the International Symposium of Dental Hygiene in Brisbane in August 2019, with all proceeds going to the DHAA. “Who is the Tooth Fairy’s Best Friend?” book reading & drawing competition

sessions were held during Dental Health Week in August 2018 in NSW and Victoria involving over 300 children. The picture book engages young children and their families in learning about caring for their teeth and discovering the magic of fluoride for good oral health.

The book contains a beautifully illustrated story, a wisdom tooth tips page, glossary and an information page for teachers, parents and carers. A BIG book and standard book are available for purchase online from the DHAA Facebook Shop, providing a valuable health literacy resource for all hygienists and oral health therapists interested in oral health promotion. Currently funding is being sort to produce a digital version of the book, which will include video, animation and stop motion technology to bring the book alive. This will provide a sustainable resource that can be disseminated via digital platforms to reach rural and remote communities.

ORAL HEALTH PROMOTION AND PUBLIC HEALTH

This year we saw the establishment of the Oral Health Promotion and Public Health Special Interest Group “to advocate, promote and create awareness for oral health as an important part of general health wellbeing by making oral health a shared responsibility for all (health) professionals and those outside of the dental profession and to reduce inequalities in oral health by improving oral health literacy to the general public and access to preventive oral health care.”

Since its inception the group has been developing a strategy to promote partnerships with other health professional groups and to reach out to the Australian public. Its achievements so far include:

• •

The development of a Calendar of Health Promotion Events Regular OHPPH SIG articles for The DHAA eBulletin:

a. Reported on the Australian Research Centre for Population Oral Health (ARCPOH) National Oral Health Promotion Clearinghouse Workshop on ‘The Use of Fluorides in Australia’, ‘The Future of Fluoride’

b. Reported on the Rethink Sugary Drink Alliance ‘Thirsty’ Campaign, ‘#Thirsty Supporting the call for a sugar tax in Australia’

c. Reported on ‘What does Oral Health Promotion mean to you?’ d. Reported on ‘Rethink Sugary Alliance: Sugar Tax Update’

•

Researched the Health Literacy on Fluoride Varnish

•

Researched examples of good social media campaigns on oral health promotion from international dental hygienist associations

•

Identified potential target groups for oral health promotion

•

Started to develop communication strategies with successful communications on social media and email about World Oral Health Day (March 20) and ‘Thirsty’ Campaigns

With the support of an external consultant, the group is developing a communication strategy on oral health promotion. It strongly emphasises the importance of a consumer website in improving public oral health literacy, and has been benchmarking other successful international websites when building the DHAA consumer website.

The group is also advising the DHAA board to consolidate a variety of project grants and research funds into an oral health promotion fund that supports the DHAA oral health promotion strategy.

Headed by Ian Epondulan and supported by Ron Knevel, Lyn Carman, Cathryn Carboon, Christina Zerk and Steve Moore, the OHPPH

SIG has been working extensively towards the development of strategies and tools over the past 12 months. The next step will be the implementation phase that sees the launch of the DHAA Oral Health Promotion Plan in 2019-2020.

AGED CARE In response to the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety, The DHAA submitted a paper “Oral health, the ageing population and oral hygiene care in residential aged care facilities”. The paper was prepared by the Chair of the Aged Care Special Interest Group Margie Steffens and Dr Janet Wallace at the University of New Castle. It outlines the inadequate oral care and oral health literacy in residential aged care facilities and proposes an Australian wide Senior Smiles model of care to address the current problems identified. A second submission was also planned to advocate for more prescriptive oral care requirements for Aged Care Facilities accreditation and direct funding to dental practitioners to deliver onsite oral care.

Margie Steffens and Lynda Van Adrighem also represented DHAA at the National Aged Care Alliance Melbourne meeting in May. Ongoing effort is being made to advocate for aged care provider numbers for dental hygienists through various channels such as the Alliance
