UDHA Convention

Yesterday and today is the UDHA convention. I was required to go yesterday and today I am going to help out in the SADHA booth for 2 hours. This will fulfill 1/2 activity requirements for the SADHA program.

There are classes to fulfill your CE [[continuing education]] requirements for those who already have a degree. They go over new techniques and products to better help in the clinical setting. A lot of people were there including 6!!! schools. It has made me very worried for the availability of work once I graduate.

They had only 1 class specifically for students at the end of the day. They talked about different ways to use a degree in the USA, including everything from the military to working on pt.'s who are in prison. This is a very well paying job where ever you are, it's just getting the job that is the problem. :)

They had a ton of booths there that we could get fit for loupes or test out some ultrasonic scalers. My very favorite was the massage station. They gave us massages for 3-5 minutes and they felt AMAZING! Everyone gives you free stuff that you get to try out for yourself. Many come to Weber and do a Lunch and Learn for us. They bring us all lunch for free and we get to learn about their product, and give us free product again! In April the man from Sonicare (electronic toothbrushes) told us that he would be visiting and everyone gets a FREE SONICARE BRUSH!!!!! This made me want to bow to him to say the least.

Anyway, here is a picture of all the free stuff I got,
just in case you didn't believe me. :)
