Help Create a Well-Being Plan for Canadian Health Professionals

CDHA is a member of the National Collaborative—a coalition of Canadian health care organizations dedicated to improving the well-being of health care professionals and developing Canada’s Health Workforce Well-Being Plan. To support this initiative, we invite CDHA Active (Practising) members to complete a brief well-being survey in English or French on your workplace experiences. By participating, you’ll receive personalized insights into your professional fulfillment and burnout levels and contribute to a national project to improve workforce well-being among Canadian health professionals. Deadline: November 23.

Download CDHA’s diabetes resource for clients, available in English and French, which outlines the risks, offers oral health care tips, and more. As health care professionals, dental hygienists know that diabetes is a complex condition that impacts every part of a person’s life. But did you know that stigma still surrounds it? Explore a powerful video series from Diabetes Canada that tackles common myths and misconceptions—helping to shift the conversation and promote greater understanding.
