Overview
Are you prepared to recognize and respond to a medical emergency — whether it happens in your dental office or outside of it?
Medical emergencies are often taught as a long list of conditions, treatments, medications and protocols. This CE course takes a different, more practical approach.
Attendees will learn a simple framework for distinguishing true emergencies from urgencies and non-events, understanding how age can affect an emergency response, and determining what can realistically be managed by an individual team member while additional help is obtained.
Using syncope as the model, Dr. Hawkins will demonstrate a practical approach that can be applied to many emergency situations — helping dental professionals and their teams recognize what is happening, take appropriate initial action and buy valuable time when needed.
This course also addresses what should be included in an office or travel emergency kit and how to keep it current.
