February 21, 2012Dental Nurse Boot Camp – Essential skills for your new team member.
What happens in the first few weeks or induction period for your new or returning dental nurse should prepare them for their future career within your dental practice. This crucial time is often overlooked with many new team members being thrown in at the deep end with a “sink or swim” attitude; leading to an underwhelmed, demoralised individual who once again falls out of the profession. This session is aimed at all members of the dental team involved in the training and induction of a new team member, highlighting the most important elements of dental nurse training and how to ensure a successful start in the profession.
Objectives
* To make you aware of the most important elements of dental nurse training
* 6 steps to giving a successful start in dental nursing
* Creating the ultimate dental nurse induction for 100% long term success
