Hayley has always been passionate about oral health care and loved being around children, so naturally gravitated towards a career in Community Oral Health Service. She soon realised she enjoyed working with the adolescent age group and this soon morphed into a passion for working with and educating adult patients.
Hayley has completed several community based oral health initiatives, mainly focusing on delivering dental education within early childhood centres and primary schools. The highlight of this was for Hayley was supplying all four year olds in Cromwell with electric toothbrushes, floss wands and toothpaste in 2021. She is very passionate about providing oral health education to anyone willing to listen.
