If you’re new to DSD, we know it might be hard to work out the best way to begin. Would an in-person course or online learning be the best fit for your goals right now – or could you even start the process of becoming a DSD Clinic?
To help you work out the most suitable starting point for you, we have created the DSD ‘Pathfinder’. Answer a few simple questions and this easy-to-use tool will suggest the best way for you to get started.
In this article you can take the quiz and find out more about some of the best entry points to learn and implement the DSD strategies.
We don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach to anything – let alone our client journey! Just like your patients have their own unique needs and preferences that require you to develop a tailor-made treatment plan, the most suitable route with DSD for you will depend on your current goals, challenges and other circumstances.
For this reason, we’ve designed a number of different starting points for newcomers to DSD.
