When it comes to aging adults, access to care isn’t just about location. It’s about mobility, chronic conditions, cognitive health, and above all—consistency and trust.
That’s why the model is so powerful. Registered Dental Hygienists in Alternative Practice are licensed to work in non-traditional settings like private homes, assisted living communities, and skilled nursing facilities. For seniors who can’t easily travel to a dental office, RDHAPs are often the first and only line of preventive care.
If you're a caregiver, provider, or healthcare leader, this one’s worth the read.
