The College of Dental Hygienists of Ontario brought disciplinary proceedings against a registrant for failing to comply with a previous committee decision requiring completion of continuing education courses, and for practising dental hygiene while her certificate of registration was suspended for non-payment of fees.
The registrant admitted to the allegations via an Agreed Statement of Facts.
The Discipline Committee found the registrant committed professional misconduct.
Accepting a joint submission on penalty, the Committee ordered a reprimand, a three-month suspension, completion of specified ethics and jurisprudence courses, and $1,000 in costs.
