QUINLAN, TX, February 10, 2012
/24-7PressRelease/ -- It may be voluntary, but the orthodontic assistants at Apple Orthodontix take it very seriously. "It" is the American Association of Orthodontists Voluntary Certification Program for Orthodontic Assistants, also recognized as the gold standard for clinical assistants in the orthodontic field. There are only 32 SOAs or Specialized Orthodontic Assistants in the state of Texas. Apple Orthodontix employs 21 of them.
This program is for assistants that wish to demonstrate a high level of knowledge and proficiency. The certification is a process that reviews work experience, leadership. professionalism, education and knowledge within the orthodontic assisting profession. Individuals that earn certification confirm their commitment to quality and continuous improvement through a rigorous and comprehensive review.
"When our assistants complete this program, it increases their value to both the doctor and their patients," said CEO and President, Chad Packard. "These assistants are at their best because the program maximizes their professionalism and proficiency. They are all required to keep their knowledge and skills current, have more than 2,000 hours of experience, maintain their membership in professional organizations and have a current CPR certification. Encouraging and supporting our assistants to complete this program keeps our patient care at an exceptional level."
