Description
Learn how to make sound ethical and legal decisions in practice with ETHICS AND LAW IN DENTAL HYGIENE, Second Edition. This book is written
in the context of "real-world" situations that you will encounter on a regular basis in dental hygiene practice. The book is divided
into three sections: ethics, law, and simulations and applications. The latter section contains 25 case studies with accompanying discussion
and thought questions, along with testlets that mirror the style of the newly revised National Board Dental Hygiene Examination (NBDHE)
and suggested activities. Appendixes include the recently revised American Dental Association (ADA) and American Dental Hygiene Association
(ADHA) respective codes of ethics, making this the most up-to-date ethics book for dental hygiene currently on the market. With this
expert guidance, you'll be prepared to take the NBDHE and address ethical dilemmas in everyday practice.
