Medical emergency training for dental teams
The General Dental Council makes clear that medical emergencies can arise at any time and that members of the dental team must understand their role, and be appropriately trained and competent to respond.
GDC standards also state that staff who may be involved in responding to a medical emergency should be trained and prepared, and that teams should practise together regularly using simulated emergencies.
Our training is designed to support this by giving the whole team practical experience of managing realistic medical emergencies within the dental practice environment.
