Our Medical Emergencies CPD training for Dental practices is designed to prepare all primary dental care staff for an emergency.
’A patient could collapse on any premises at any time, whether they have received treatment or not.
It is therefore essential that ALL registrants are trained in dealing with medical emergencies, including resuscitation, and possess up to date evidence of capability.’
General Dental Council Scope of Practice 2013.
The GDC states that each member of the dental team must complete at least 10 hours of Medical Emergencies training in each CPD cycle, and recommend that you do at least two hours of this type of CPD activity every year.
Learning aims and objectives:
By the end of the course, the delegate will be able to demonstrate the skills of Primary and Secondary Survey, Airway management, Basic Life Support (CPR), the safe use of an automated external defibrillator (AED), Care of the unresponsive patient, and a level of skill in dealing with medical emergencies in general dental practice.
