The CDHA Board of Directors is more than a body that reviews decisions and activities. It is a think-tank
for CDHA,
and that's where our board's visionary role comes into play.
The board remains focused on the
5 broad areas of need where outcomes
are required. These issues are addressed by the board through written
policies to the
CEO that describe organization ends that need to be achieved and
situations that need to be addressed.
Just as importantly, it describes situations and actions that need to be avoided. The board also helps
develop
national positions and standards for dental hygiene practice, education, research, and regulation. Through
this
work, CDHA serves both its members and the Canadian public more effectively.
