Providing Care to Family and Friends Memo
by Mary Bertone 10 Feb '25

10 Feb '25

Attention Dental Hygiene Class of 2025 & 2026 I want to address an important issue regarding patient care and maintaining professional boundaries, particularly concerning providing care to friends and family outside our clinic setting. Providing care to friends and family is a privilege. While offering dental assistance or evaluations to people we know may be tempting, it is crucial to remember that until someone officially becomes a patient or is currently a patient of our college’s clinic, offering care outside the established professional framework is inappropriate and unethical. As oral health professionals in training, we must uphold the highest standards of practice in the clinic and in our personal lives. Please avoid offering care to patients who are not officially enrolled or current patients at the school clinic outside the dental college. Thank you for your attention to this critical matter.

Good afternoon DH2, Happy New Year! I hope you are all doing well and easing into the Winter term nicely. I am looking forward to seeing you tomorrow for our first HYGN 1292: Pre-Clinical Restorative Techniques for Dental Hygienists class. Our class tomorrow will run from 9:00am-12:50pm in Hart Lab. Don't worry, we will take a couple of breaks in there as well. In preparation for tomorrow's session, please dress in standard laboratory attire (scrubs, hair tied back, etc.) and bring your loupes, and metal jaw (the one you used in pre-clinical to attach the dentoform to the station head). Have a great afternoon and see you all tomorrow!

Welcome back to Term 2, 2025
by Trenna Reeve 05 Jan '25

05 Jan '25

All Students, Welcome back, I hope you all had a great holiday and enjoyed a bit of a break from the college. As we get back into clinic, I would implore you all to refresh your mind on clinic protocols and remember the requirements for the pre-clinical and senior labs to be kept clean. Points to remember as we go into the next term: 1. There was a localized flood in a few of the quiet room operatories over the break resulting in some damage. The quiet rooms have been cordoned off and additional dental chairs within the Main Clinic have been opened to accommodate. 2. The operatories that can now accept the Emerald S scanner are units 37, 36 and 16. 3. The Primescan is not yet functional so if you need to switch operatories to use the Emerald S scanners please let Katalina Munoz know. 4. For D3 students on scanning rotation you must use the Emerald S scanners even if the Primescan is functioning. 5. Ensure you are checking in and out your patients in axium. 6. D3 and D4 patients with treatment that is suitable for D2 students have been assigned to the D2 patient pool, you will see this in axium. Hold off on treatment that is D2 level care. Talk to your PCC if you have questions. 7. Hygiene Recall Rotation: remember to send out a general referral for undergrad student assignment and to have the interprofessional note completed at the session. A number of referrals have been missed. 8. We are still waiting for many of the CDCP pre-authorizations to be returned. Your PCC should be sending you an axium email to let you know if treatment has been approved. A significant number of pre-authorizations have be denied, you may need to start having discussions with your patients as to what treatment they would like to proceed with due to the denial of coverage by CDCP. 9. If a procedure code is changed you must update the treatment plan. Copy and paste the entire treatment plan, make the corrections and then deactivate the old treatment plan. 10. D2, D3, and D4 students remember to add the planned treatment you anticipate doing at the appointment when booking patients. This is essential to instructor assignment and for the clinic mapping. 11. Make sure you are flushing your lines appropriately at each session. Take care and have a great 2025. Dr. Reeve Trenna M.

In this program, students will participate in an immersive interprofessional learning opportunity within the Amupakin collective, who hold traditional knowledge that has been handed down for generations. The primary goals of this learning opportunity are to: • Recognize the impact of the history of colonization and current policies on the health of Indigenous peoples (in both global and local contexts). • Recognize the importance of cultural safety in providing health care within Indigenous communities.  • Affirm students' ethical obligation to band together with interprofessional colleagues to provide culturally safe care for marginalized populations. • Appreciate how Indigenous ways of knowing and being can and should be integrated into our health and education systems.  About Amupakin: Amupakin has been providing free traditional healthcare and midwifery services for their communities for many years. Despite their long history as trusted health providers in their community, they are still struggling to be recognized by the public health system of Ecuador. Some of their current struggles include fighting against the government’s efforts to discourage people from seeking traditional healthcare and the compulsory “training and certification” of Indigenous midwives—who have been practicing midwifery since childhood by assisting their mothers and grandmothers who in turned learned midwifery from their mothers and grandmothers. Program Fees: The program is 100% not for profit. The all-inclusive fee of $2500 covers return airfare, all in-country transportation and accommodations, three daily meals, pre-departure training, and a financial contribution to Amupakin to support their goals. Next steps after applying: Once you’ve applied, Lisa Mendez will be in touch with you via email to confirm receipt of your application, discuss/confirm your availability, and to answer any questions.

Hello DH2 Students, I am happy to inform you that you have been assigned a student voice mailbox number. All the instructions are in the Student Clinic Manual, but I have also attached them to this email for quick reference. The last page of the instructions is for you to sign & return to me by next week Wednesday, December 11, 2024. I encourage all of you to set up your voicemail message & test it with a classmate to make sure everything is working before winter break. Use of the student mailbox messaging system is mandatory for all students at the Dr. Gerald Niznick College of Dentistry. This is the system that patients are to use when contacting students. Here is a brief outline of how the Student Voice Mailbox works: * At your first appointment with your patient, give them the instructions of the Student Voice Mailbox & your 4 digit mailbox number * Patients who need to speak with you regarding an upcoming appointment or treatment are to call 204-480-1339 * The voice mail system will ask the patient to enter the students 4 digit number * After the patient has entered your 4 digit number, they will be prompted to leave a voice message for you * You will then receive a notification that you have a voice message waiting for you Please follow the instructions for setting up your voicemail including entering an updated password and a personal voice message from yourself. Feel free to come see me or send me a message if you have any questions or concerns.

Adjusting Tomorrow's Perio I Quiz Time
by Kaleigh Warden 19 Nov '24

19 Nov '24

Good morning DH2, It looks like Winter is officially arriving in Winnipeg, with a significant storm expected overnight. With our Perio I quiz scheduled for tomorrow morning at 8:00 am, I understand that several of you - especially those commuting from outside or across the city - might be feeling a bit anxious about the drive. I come from the South end of the city so I share in some of your concerns. To help reduce some of the stress, I'd like to propose adjusting the quiz start time to 9:30 am. We could begin class with the scheduled lectures and then end with the quiz. This would give everyone a little extra time to arrive safely without worrying about missing the quiz due to weather-related delays. Please discuss this as a class and let me know your collective decision. Mark, as Class President, if you could let me know what your class has decided, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone!
