Hi DH3, I wanted to touch base regarding our patient chart review process. When a chart is sent to Marta to be placed on the review list, the chart will remain assigned to you until Marta, Carley, and Dr. Reeve have reviewed it and provide further direction. Marta will message you directly once a decision has been determined, so please wait for this notification before proceeding. For the most up-to-date information, please continue to refer directly to the chart notes. Thank you, Sabrina

Clinic Update - 14 September 2026
by Trenna Reeve 13 Sep '26

13 Sep '26

Dental and Dental Hygiene Students, It has been a busy start to the new academic year which is great to see. A couple of points to pass along to help keep you all on track: 1. Rotation schedule - the rotation schedule is a live document; there will be changes to it as the year progresses. It is your responsibility to check the rotation schedule at least on a weekly basis. If there are any last-minute changes (within the week) then Kat will send you an email to update you. If it is more than a week out, then an email will NOT be sent as the expectation is that you are checking the schedule regularly. 2. Treatment plans - DO NOT copy and paste treatment plans from last year or treatment plans that were not made by you. 3. Hygiene treatment - not all patients have been assigned to hygiene students yet. We are working on setting up a designation in axium so it will be clear which patients are being held for hygiene student assignment, and which will be for the dental student to complete. For now the expectation is for the dental student to check: * SPT - if hygiene student completed the last SPT then it will remain with hygiene students * NPP- confirm with your PCC, anything complex perio will be held for dental hygiene students - they require this for their requirements so please do not proceed 4. Hygiene recall exams - if a dental student completes a CTP, or treatment plan update, or treatment plan update no charge, the dental student needs to request open access to the patient's chart and the procedure code needs to be under the dental student. The hygiene student completes the interprofessional note, the dental student completes the treatment plan, and a general referral is sent to reception if there are treatment needs. 5. It is the student's responsibility to confirm and know what the patient's insurance coverage is and communicate that with the patient. If you are unsure then discuss this with your PCC BEFORE your patient's appointment. For example CDCP covers 1 recall exam per 12 months - you need to know when this was last charged out so that you can follow this schedule and/or communicate with your patients when treatment may or will not be covered. Treatment costs cannot be a surprise to your patients - communicate. 6. Make sure you are updating axium when you have seated your patient and when you have dismissed your patient from the clinic. In case of an emergency we need to know exactly who is and is not in the clinic at any given time. 7. Ensure you are following IPAC protocol. Hand hygiene audits are underway. Any severe breaches may impact your ability to work in the clinic environment. Keep yourself and your patients safe. Have a great week. Trenna M.

Patient in Need of Hygiene Treatment - 84107
by Kaleigh Warden 09 Sep '26

09 Sep '26

Good afternoon, This is the first of what will likely be several requests like this throughout the upcoming year! I am looking for a student who can provide dental hygiene care for a patient (#84107) before they proceed with restorative treatment. Their first restorative appointment is scheduled for October 2nd. Ideally, the student would have at least two available appointments within the next two weeks to begin the patient's dental hygiene care. The patient appears to have good availability, particularly in the afternoons. If you are able to accommodate this patient in your schedule, please let me know at your earliest convenience. Thank you!

Update: Main Clinic Technology Issues
by Kaleigh Warden 02 Sep '26

02 Sep '26

Good morning, As you are aware, we have experienced several technical issues during the first few weeks of clinic. The most significant concerns have been slow computer start up and browsing, unexpected shutdowns, and difficulties with browser sign ins. I am happy to report that several of these issues have now been resolved, while others are being actively investigated. In working with CSS, the unexpected shutdowns were traced to a technical error associated with CDCP patient records. This issue has now been resolved. The next time you log in, you may be prompted to update your AxiUm client. Please select "Yes" to complete the update. IST will also be assessing the clinic workstations this week to determine why they are operating so slowly. Hopefully, this assessment will help identify and resolve the underlying issue. IST has also provided guidance regarding personal UM accounts remaining accessible in the browser, particularly when multiple users share the generic Clinic Windows login. According to IST, this occurs because Single Sign-On temporarily caches account credentials. If you sign in to SharePoint or UM Learn using your personal UM account, please do the following before leaving the workstation: 1. Sign out of SharePoint or UM accounts (e.g. UM Learn, Outlook) 2. Close all browser windows When the browser is reopened, the cached session and profile information should be cleared, allowing the next person to sign in with their own account. I hope these updates help things run more smoothly. A big thank you to CSS for their efforts in identifying and implementing solutions to these challenges so quickly. Please let me know if you notice these or any other ongoing technical issues. When possible, include the unit number and a brief description of what occurred so the issue can be followed up appropriately. For isolated IT issues (e.g. signature pads not working), please continue to submit a ticket to IST by sending an email to DentIT(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:DentIT@umanitoba.ca>). Thank you for your patience as these concerns are addressed.
