Treatment & Planning Notes Continuing Education and Implementation

Maggie designed and delivered a collaborative faculty development course on treatment & planning notes for 3 continuing education credits. In Fall 2024, we met weekly for 5 weeks and addressed 2 objectives at a time. Upon completion, the faculty created a revised T&P Template 1224. Portions of the template have already been implemented, and the remaining components will be incorporated into our 2025-26 clinic software update. Clinic coordinators have continued to use the T&P Peer Review Tool in faculty calibration sessions this Spring.

  1. The training objectives were to describe the legal, educational, and practical implications of T&P documentation at JCCC.
  2. List the components of JCCC T&P documentation.
  3. Analyze T&P documentation for errors according to specifications in the JCCC Clinical Manual.
  4. List common documentation errors.
  5. Apply clinic evaluation criteria to evaluate T&P documentation.
  6. Complete evaluation procedures.
  7. Discuss strategies for effective chairside formative feedback on documentation.
  8. Discuss strategies for consistent summative feedback on documentation.
  9. Create recommendations for the clinic evaluation procedures and documentation specifications.
  10. Create a team norm for communication about documentation.

Writing Across the Curriculum Presenter

Maggie collaborated with JCCC faculty on the Writing Across the Curriculum Committee on a presentation at Spring 2021 Professional Development Days:

Extraordinary times call for out-of-the-ordinary assignments. In this session, we will explore ways to increase student investment in content without overwhelming faculty members with additional paperload. If you are tired of tests or uneasy with traditional research essays, it might be time to try something different. Join our interdisciplinary panel of faculty will discuss creating assignments that meet different objectives: from low-stakes learning checks, to assessments that move students to the application of knowledge, to projects that encourage students to follow their curiosity.

 

Clinical Evaluation System Replacement

Over two years, Maggie customized the Tal Eval and Radiographic clinical evaluation systems, developed policies, created forms, and wrote the clinical evaluation criteria. Feedback from the dental hygiene team and beta testing was incorporated throughout the process.

She also developed the training program. In collaboration with the JCCC Professional Development Department and the Kansas Dental Board, the dental hygiene faculty received 7 Continuing Education Credits for the training.
