Is your practice ready for change?

Melissa Moore Sanchez, CIC, Manager, Northwest Dentists Insurance Company

The world is changing, and some of those changes eventually show up in the dental practice. Sometimes it’s a cultural change. Sometimes we obtain more medical knowledge, which gives us the tools to confidently provide appropriate care to our patients. And sometimes the decisions we make or don’t, increase our risk of liability exposure.  

Join Melissa Sanchez with NORDIC as we review the basic principles of good risk management. We’ll also explore providing care to pregnant patients, and patients with sleep disorders. We’ll discuss the dialogue to have when working with transgender patients. 

Do you know what to do when an equipment or instrument failure occurs and injures a patient? We’ll address that as well. 

Marijuana use and the opioid epidemic are hot topics right now. We’ll discuss proper care and charting when dealing with patients who may be drug seekers or are arriving for their appointment under the influence.  

Is your practice ready for our changing world? Join us at the PNDC on Thursday, June 21st from 8:00 – 11:00 am. This course is appropriate for dentists and staff, and qualifies NORDIC insured dentists for a 5% risk management credit.
