SubjectMentoring
DescriptionThe requirements placed on dental professionals to maintain quality improvements has led to the need for a new approach to staff development. Mentoring is a well established and beneficial approach to personal development across the healthcare sector. This course has been developed to ensure that the knowledge and skills of senior staff are cascaded to their new and less experience colleagues. In dental teams, this training enables mentor/mentee relationships to create strong productive teams.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR FACE TO FACE COURSES

Please ensure you have a suitable face covering following government guidance. If you are exempt from wearing a face covering please notify us as soon as possible.

Please note: A face visor or shield may be worn in addition to a face covering but not instead of one. This is because face visors or shields do not adequately cover the nose and mouth, and do not filter airborne particles.

For delegates attending face to face courses please be advised that your details may be shared with NHS Test and Trace if requested.

Face to face attendees are reminded that;

• Should they have symptoms of coronavirus (a high temperature, a new continuous cough or a loss or change to sense of smell or taste), they should not attend an event and let the organisers know by contacting dentaladmin.yh@hee.nhs.uk

• It is the individual’s duty and responsibility to comply with public health measures to control the Covid-19 pandemic and respond to the NHS Test and Trace, or other local systems for contact tracing. If contacted, attendees should confirm their attendance at this event and ask them to contact dentaladmin.yh@hee.nhs.uk for the attendee list.

There is more information about the NHS Test and Trace system available on the government website. It is important to understand your responsibilities.
