DescriptionHere are the workshop details... The aviation industry over the last 30 yrs has massively reduced the frequency of disasters. We'll explore how the lessons they've learned relate to maintaining a patient safety culture in your dental practice.

This section of the day will include 13 key procedures and practices that contribute to patient safety.  How crew resource management in aviation and dentistry can reduce errors, adverse outcomes and accidents. The use of patient checklists in practice to help you avoid getting blown off course.
