Webinar: Consent, records and communication - do you know the drill?
Calling all dental healthcare professionals! Specially tailored to MIPS dental members, this webinar looks at three of the most common issues facing dental healthcare practitioners. To ensure our members are equipped with the right tools and knowledge to make informed decisions about their patients’ care, Dr Elizabeth Milford will present on some of the key components of these issues. Dr Milford will outline how consent relies on effectively communicating options, risks and costs associated with procedures as well as post procedure warnings and maintenance in order to provide optimal treatment to individual patients and mitigate adverse outcomes. She will also stress the importance of the dental practitioner understanding the patient’s ability to agree to treatment. This webinar will also cover how to work through these key issues as well as the minutiae of keeping records and basing them on two-way conversations with your patients.
