Infection Control Seminars Tailored For Dental Assistants
In the last few years the ADAVB has noticed a significant rise in dental assistants attending our infection control seminars. It is highly commendable that members are now including their team in such topics, especially when it is the dental assistants who are often the ones implementing the system in the practice.
While registrations for dental assistants have increased, it has been brought to our attention that the information at these seminars are far too academic and primarily aimed at dentists. Many dental assistants feel they need practical information that is directly relevant to their work.
With this in mind, the ADAVB is proud to be working in partnership with Mayfield Education to deliver a series of Infection Control workshops that have been specifically tailored to the needs of dental assistants. These highly informative full-day programs employ a variety of interactive training methods such as: demonstrations; case studies; group discussion facilitation; role-plays; structured individual exercises and trainer presentations.
There are four modules to choose from and while it is not essential to attend all of them, participants will find that the topics offered are highly useful in the practice. They are – Module 1: Staff Health, Module 2: Infection Control, Module 3: Sterilisation and Module 4: Cleaning and Packing Instruments. In addition, there is a 10% discount for those who sign-up for all four modules making it extremely worthwhile to attend.
Participants at these workshops will benefit greatly as Mayfield Education is Victoria's leading staff education and training centre for the health and community services sector. For over 45 years, Mayfield has provided health and community services training programs, courses and services that equip people with practical, work related skills. Their vast experience includes the development and delivery of specific health training certificate level and short courses in specialist health areas such us sterilisation, infection control, health management, allied health, nursing and aged care.
Details for the workshops are included in the March newsletter. For more information, please contact the CPD department at (03) 8825 4600 or email cpd@adavb.org or click here
