The College of Dental Hygienists of Ontario brought allegations of professional misconduct against the Registrant for receiving and providing unauthorized assistance while completing an online Quality Assurance Test.
The hearing proceeded on an Agreed Statement of Facts and a Joint Submission on Penalty and Costs.
The Discipline Committee found that the Registrant committed professional misconduct by failing to cooperate with the Quality Assurance Committee and engaging in disgraceful, dishonourable, or unprofessional conduct.
The Committee accepted the joint submission, ordering a reprimand, a two-month suspension, completion of an ethics course, and $3,000 in costs.
