Safe and effective management of patient emergencies is a key part of dental practice, yet many teams have never had consistent, unified training and have never practiced. My aim is to change that for your office.

I offer a comprehensive training approach which includes pre-study, a didactic portion and hands on simulation in your space to practice managing common patient emergencies. I can also bundle CPR certification and recertification as part of educational experiences.

Topics covered include:

• BLS review

• General emergency management principles

• Anaphylaxis

• Hypoglycemia

• Management of Respiratory emergencies:

  • Asthma

  • Airway Obstruction

  • Hyperventilation

• Management of Cardiovascular emergencies:

  • Cardiac Chest and Myocardial Infarction

  • Vasovagal syncope

  • Stroke

• Management of Neurological Emergencies:

  • Seizures

  • Panic attacks

Emergency kits, emergency policies and college compliance aren't why anyone went into dentistry. Let me take the stress away from you. I offer a variety of services from sourcing equipment such as AEDs to document review and preparation, to completing a full audit of your office's emergency readiness. Because of my medical and dental experience, I can design and deliver training or materials to address any gaps identified.

For practitioners who currently offer IV services or would like to start, this learning opportunity offers all my tips and tricks (as a seasoned nurse and former EMT) to help you master your IV insertion skills. Vein choice, site prep, tourniquet application, emergency access, vein finders and hands on practice opportunities are all covered in this course. Contact me to enquire about pricing and availability.
