Standards of Practice
The Health Professions Act requires that all Colleges develop and maintain Standards of Practice for the profession. Accordingly, the College of Alberta Denturists has developed Standards of Practice that establish standards of professional conduct expected of denturists in fulfilling their duties to their patients, the public and the profession. The standards are in three modules:
- Competency and Application of Knowledge
- Accountability
- Professionalism and Altruism
- Maintaining Appropriate Boundaries
Part II – Patient Record Keeping
Part III – Infection Prevention and Control
New Standards of Practice
Please be advised that Council has approved a new Standards of Practice that will come into effect, and be enforceable, on January 1, 2022. At that time, the current Infection Prevention and Control and Recordkeeping standards will become guidelines under the new Standards of Practice until new Guidelines are approved. Until then, the current Standards of Practice remain in effect.
