Medical Emergencies in a Dental Practice Course

Medical Emergencies in a Dental Practice Course

This Medical Emergencies in a Dental Practice course is a dental first aid program that exceeds the requirements of dental medical emergencies training as set out by the General Dental Council (GDC). This program is often referred to as the Dental CPR Certification; however, it covers far more than just the CPR portion of emergency care.

Medical emergencies in dental practices are rare, however problems can occur at any time without warning. Ensuring that your staff is adequately trained will increase their confidence to care and reduce the fear sometimes associated with those problems.

The course content is tailored to ensure that you and your staff are ready to care, should a problem arise within your dental practice.
