The Registrant, a dental hygienist, admitted to professional misconduct for making false chart entries to conceal that a colleague had provided dental hygiene services to the colleague's spouse.
The Discipline Committee accepted an Agreed Statement of Facts and found the Registrant committed professional misconduct, including falsifying records and acting in a conflict of interest.
The Committee accepted a joint submission on penalty, ordering a two-month suspension, a reprimand, completion of an ethics course, and $5,000 in costs.
