We welcome you to join Dr. Sangeeta Patodia for an online session on learning effective medical assessment skills for emergencies.

Seminar Topic: The Dental Teams Role in Managing Medical Emergencies

Speaker: Dr. Sangeeta Patodia

Course Description:

It is not a matter of if but when will a medical emergency occur in your office. Effective management of medical events requires the entire dental team to act in unison. A trained and prepared team can communicate with EMS, retrieve emergency drugs and equipment and provide airway and cardiovascular support for a patient in need. This course will place emphasis on team dynamics and how to co-ordinate the efforts of all staff to optimize crisis management.  
 
If you work in a dental office, no matter your role, this course is for you.
