Course DescriptionThis course is designed for all members of the dental team to inform and educate about risk management and prevention of medical errors in clinical practice. All dental professionals must be proactive in every controllable area to minimize risk of liability to the practice and more importantly, ensure the absolute safety of the dental patient. Many state dental boards require a course that educates the dental team about safety goals and patient protection. We have designed this course to meet those state mandates. Medical errors can be largely prevented when best practices are applied. So dentists and their teams can be protected from lawsuits and secure in the knowledge that all measures to protect patients' safety have been undertaken.About the AuthorMs. Wright is a continuing education editor and writer as well as a Temp PRN with agencies in the Washington State area.
