Whitewater Oral Surgery Group is excited to present:  

Medical Emergencies in your Dental Practice

A complimentary CE lunch and learn program

SUMMARY:

Medical emergencies can happen anywhere — including the dental office — and often occur during times of heightened stress. Since many patients perceive dental visits as stressful, it is essential that every member of the dental team be prepared to respond quickly and effectively to medical emergencies.

This course offers a comprehensive review of medical emergencies commonly encountered in dental settings. It covers prevention strategies, early recognition of risk factors, and essential training for all team members. From dentists and dental assistants to hygienists and front office staff, everyone in the dental practice will benefit from this critical training. This course could truly be a lifesaver.

OBJECTIVES:

1. Identify the most common medical emergencies encountered in dental settings.
2. Describe preventative strategies to minimize the occurrence of medical emergencies.
3. Recognize early warning signs and symptoms of patients at risk for medical complications.
4. Understand the function and use of essential emergency medical equipment and medications.

1 Complimentary Live CE credit will be awarded to attendees.
