Course Description
Dental professionals value the role that diversity contributes to society. Diversity has evolved and includes more than race and ethnicity. Many diverse populations are underserved or overlooked. There are a number of populations that have growing evidence of health disparities. Dental professionals must prepare themselves for the future of diversity and develop strategies to provide the best patient-centered care.*

"I’ve taken Jasmin Haley ‘s course on LGBTQ and it’s excellent! 👏 I have put into practice some of the techniques and courtesies I learned in this class which I wouldn’t have known otherwise. I’m grateful for this course. A must take! ... The biggest thing I learned in your course was on preferred pronouns and I used that knowledge right away. I felt really comfortable interacting with my patient because I had learned about the LGBTQ culture. My patient seemed relieved that I didn’t question their preferences."
Kelly Devito, RDH
Course Instructor
In 2014, initially this course was presented as a panel discussion at a community college dental hygiene program because of the lack of training within the dental hygiene curriculum for the advancement of diversity training; particularly with patients in the LGBTQ community. Jasmin has treated and educated the LGBTQ community extensively with her involvement with the HIV/AIDS community. Her primary focus is to promote cultural sensitivity and cultural humility.
Jasmin Haley, RDH, MSDH, CDA, is the Founder of Beyond the Prophy® and Co-founder of MOMgienist®.
