Patient Assignment
by Trenna Reeve 27 Aug '26

27 Aug '26

D3 and D4 students, Please understand that your assigned patient pool is a group of patients that have been assigned to you. It is your responsibility, until told otherwise, to care for these patients. Over the course of the year, you will have other patients added to your pool, and some may be co-assigned or reassigned to other learners. DO NOT view these patients as simply requirements. These are people who are gracious enough to come to the school so you can learn. Be respectful, show some compassion and caring towards your assigned patients. There is much more to learn over the next year then just completing your clinical requirements. I ask you to review your assigned patient records. This is not so you can assume the treatment plan and think that you know what treatment is ultimately required. You need to understand your patient's treatment history, so you are in a better position to care for them going forward. Do not assume that previous treatment plans remain valid and do not discuss treatment the patient may or may not want to proceed with until YOU have met the patient, completed a treatment plan yourself and then at that time you can talk about treatment options and what direction their dental care will proceed. Think of your patient pool as if you are in private practice. These are your patients, your responsibility. You will provide outstanding general practice dental care in a professional compassionate manner to the patients you are assigned which will not be exclusively dictated by what clinical requirements you need. Regards, Dr. Reeve Trenna M. Reeve DMD, ABGD Assistant Professor Associate Dean (Clinics) Dr. Gerald Niznick College of Dentistry Rady Faculty of Health Sciences University of Manitoba [1578502983199] Clinical Support Services D227-A-780 Bannatyne Avenue Winnipeg, Manitoba R3E 0W2 email: Trenna.Reeve(a)umanitoba.ca Tel: 1-204-272-3194<tel:1-204-272-3194>

D2 GP Clinic tasks during GP Clinic Assist
by Asmaa Haimeur 25 Aug '26

25 Aug '26

Hello everyone, I hope the new school year is off to a great start. I am looking forward to working with you in the D3/D4 clinic this year. As you know, D2 students will be assisting with various tasks. This presents a valuable opportunity for them to learn from your expertise and support you with routine responsibilities. I have advised the D2 students that they should NOT perform any clinical tasks before September 15. Until then, their role is strictly to observe and assist. This observation period is essential to allow students to become familiar with clinic workflow and procedures before beginning to perform clinical tasks. Beginning September 15, students may gradually complete the following requirements as the student clinician's schedule permits and according to the readiness dates below: * Extra-oral examination: September 15 * Intra-oral examination: September 15 – may be completed in conjunction with the student clinician's examination * Prophy and/or fluoride: September 15 * Rubber dam placement: September 15 * Matrix placement: September 15 * X-ray taking: September 15 * Local anesthesia – Infiltration: October 1 Students must observe at least 1-2 local anesthetic infiltrations before performing this task. * Local anesthesia – Block: October 15 Students must observe at least one inferior alveolar nerve block before performing this procedure and must be assisting a D4 student. D2 students are not to perform blocks while assisting D3 students. * Retraction cord placement: November 1 Thank you for your time and dedication in mentoring them and preparing them for patient care that is starting in January. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or comments. Wishing you a successful academic year. Best regards, Dr Haimeur
