For some of us, it is hard to make the decision of what to do with our lives. It can feel a bit overwhelming to consider answering the question of what we want to do. For many of us, we are unsure and fearful of making the wrong decision. For some of us, it is too expensive, time-consuming, and demanding to attend school in pursuit of a degree. For those of us who are in the field, we hear you! Listen in as I speak openly with Dr. Shannon Farrell and Professor Kelly O'Brien about their journey into the field of Dentistry. We want you to know that we recognize the challenges of taking the first step. We work hard to help you develop the skills you need to be successful. Each of us has unique strengths and areas of potential just waiting to be unleashed. At NHTI, we are here to help you realize what you are capable of.  In this episode, we break down the many benefits of becoming a dental professional. All three of us have had unique journeys. Each of us has developed into our own unique dental professionals with unique skill sets. We talk about workforce issues, job prospects, growth opportunities, job security in the field, and the full-on love of the field of dentistry. Each of us brings our own unique perspective to the future generations tasked with meeting the needs of the many people in our own communities with dental needs.  It will take all of us in the field to help meet the demands and needs of our population's oral health. Each of us in the field needs to shout from the rooftops that we need a skilled workforce ready to meet the challenges ahead.  To learn more about the dental assisting program at NHTI click: https://www.nhti.edu/?s=dental+assisting To learn more about the dental hygiene program at NHTI click: https://www.nhti.edu/program/dental-hygiene/
