REFLECTION ON PDP SUMMER 2019
Professional development plan helps an individual to set goals, strategies and type of
training to reach those goals, as well as self-reflecting on the results. I heard about a
professional development plan before, but I was clueless on how exactly it’s
structured. I always though it was some kind of resume style statement or some sort
of business plan. Now that I learned about it, I am going to fill in all the necessary
components making my plan come togather. It inspired my to set fresh goals and
make some plans for my future career.
REFLECTION ON PDP FALL 2019
By far it was the busiest and most stressful quarter for me as two of my important
patients failed to show up to the appointments. Due to the nature of the program
often times we are at the mercies of our patients. I am trying to analyze the situation
and draw important lessons for future scheduling strategies to avoid unnecessary
stress in the clinic. Although most of my goals I set over the summer I have reached,
I am rethinking on my goals and their relevance to my situation. PDP has helped me
to emphasize and expose my priorities not only in school and clinic but in my future
career as a dental hygienist, husband and a father.
REFLECTION ON PDP WINTER 2020
By far it was one of the most productive quarter in terms of the major requirements
completion and major tests preparation. I was able to finish and complete all the
necessary appointments for my capstone patient all the way to the perio-
maintenance appointment. As my skill level is rising I am analyzing my progress to
draw to find strength and weaknesses. Although most of my goals I set over the fall I
have reached or partially reached, I am rethinking on my goals and their relevance
to my current quarter. By the process of re-evaluating and reassessing on my goals,
PDP is aiding me to keep a focus on my priorities and what's relevant to me as a
dental hygiene student.
REFLECTION ON PDP SPRING 2020
Spring quarter was most unique quarter throughout my whole school career in
terms of completely studying from home. Due to the lock down and other
unexpected and drastic changes in my school calendar, I faced new challenges. Half
of my goals were not met due to the fact that I was not able to hold clinic sessions,
postponing them to the summer 2020. Yet I was able to schedule the last
appointment for my capstone patient before the lockdown and completed all the
necessary paperwork. Other projects and online school work related goals were easy
to carry out. Considering the circumstances PDP has helped me to reconsider and
highlight my priorities not only in school, but summer clinic, my future career as a
dental hygienist and a good husband and a father.
