To all dental and dental hygiene students:

Updates for clinical activities:

Infection prevention and control guidelines are not suggestions, they are mandatory. I have indicated to all clinical staff to write IPAC breaches and submit them to me for review. If at any point, a student has a major breach or repeated minor breaches there is the potential for clinical activities to be limited for that student while IPAC remediation occurs.

the college follows the Manitoba Dental Association IPAC mandated policies and protocols. Accepting these guidelines and incorporating them into your workflow will be essential for your entire career
Wash your hands

Check your axium fund request forms. If the form has not yet been approved, you will need to review & update as the form has been modified and requires more detailed information
We added clarity to the questions that need to be answered/confirmed by the patient
The form has been divided so that both DH & Dental Students can add/update their own treatment plans/procedure codes and amounts for the same patient. Any changes, additions, modifications can be done but then you must resubmit the form to Associate Dean for review
Anytime they update a tx plan or amount, you need to resubmit the form to the Associate Dean indicating there has been a change and get it approved
Include all treatment costs - do not forget to add in xrays & exams on the fund request
Notify your PCC when treatment is completed so that the funding can be applied
Students all have access to view all of the tabs so you can verify the status of your requests

Have a great week.
