A patient could collapse on any premises at any time, whether they have received treatment or not. It is therefore essential that all registrants must be trained in dealing with medical emergencies, including resuscitation, and possess up to date evidence of capability (GDC 2024).
Our Dental Basic Life Support and Medical Emergencies course includes all General Dental Council, General Dental Association and RCUK recommended topics, qualifies for 3 hours of enhanced CPD and meets the GDC Development outcome ‘C’.
This session is delivered within your surgery for up to 10 members of staff and we advise both clinical and non-clinical staff to attend.
