Thank you so much for making these videos! I want to become a hygienist and didn’t even consider this but your advice is definitely needed and appreciated
Hi there! I just found your channel and am pursuing dental hygiene after receiving my Bachelor's in Community Health (concentrating in health education and promotion!) and having worked as an orthodontic assistant for the past 4.5 years. While I do not have specific dental hygiene experience but am experienced with OHI education and patients in a dental setting, is there a rate you'd recommend me asking for or should I just take what I can get as it would be my first job placement in dental hygiene? Thank you for making these videos!
kourtlee thanks so much for watching!! Hmm it depends on your area. I’ve heard some places would be lucky to get $13 and others $22 per hour easily so it depends! Can you speak to someone in your area for guidance?
Thanks for your reply! I was meaning what I should ask for after graduating from DH school in addition to my current experience :) Thank you for making these videos!
