Clinical Update - 8 Sep 2025
by Trenna Reeve 07 Sep '25

07 Sep '25

To all dental hygiene and dental students, We are now in full swing with clinical operations. It has been a busy week getting back to seeing patients and remembering how to use axiUm. A few points to pass along for next week in order to improve and streamline your clinical experience. 1. Students must inquire about government insurance coverage, prior to booking the patient. They should inquire with their designated PCC or if they are not available, inquire with another PCC or Katalina Munoz - Insurance Coordinator. Students must know what coverage a patient has BEFORE booking the patient. 2. When contacting patients, leave 1 week between each contact attempt to allow the patient to return your call and update the contact notes with all communication. You can request to have a patient dispositioned from your patient list only after you have attempted to contact your patient over a 3 week period (1x/week) and have this properly documented in patient contact notes. 3. Please try to refrain from coming to the window to make inquiries with your designated PCC. An email or axiUm message is preferred. If necessary, send as high importance. During certain times of the day the PCCs must focus on assigned tasks and patients. An email will be most efficient. 4. Radiology Request Forms must include the student's name that is requesting the radiographs. 5. OHAF/ HC FUND - Apply for patients who do not have Private Insurance or are 40% or 60% covered with CDCP Insurance. 6. Ensure at the end of each day you are following IPAC protocols in cleaning and disinfecting your operatory including cleaning the trap on the chair you are using. Have a great week ahead. Trenna M.

HSC Safety and Security Drop-In Meetings
by Rady Communications 25 Aug '25

25 Aug '25

Message from Dr. Chris Christodoulou, Interim President and CEO of Shared Health Critical discussions with multiple partners to address the safety concerns surrounding Health Sciences Centre continue. The safety of our staff, patients, and visitors is paramount, and we have a shared responsibility of ensuring a safe and supportive environment for everyone who walks through our doors. As we move forward, we recognize that the most meaningful progress will come from working together, uniting our voices and expertise. We must listen carefully to one another and, most importantly, honour the lived experiences of those who are on the frontlines at our facilities who have witnessed firsthand the impacts of the current challenges. We do not take this situation lightly. The road ahead may be complex, but I believe by collaborating and fostering an environment of openness and respect, we can drive the positive change needed to improve the safety and well-being of everyone at Health Sciences Centre. This is why I would like to invite you to be part of this ongoing dialogue. Your insights, concerns, and ideas are invaluable as we work together to chart a successful path forward. We need to hear from you. Over the next few weeks, members of the HSC executive and I want to meet with you to engage in candid, meaningful discussions about your safety. We are hoping to connect with you by at drop-in sessions - please see below for dates and times. Coffee will be provided. Please join me and members of HSC executive for one-on-one discussions on how we can best work together to address these challenges. We have three meetings planned for this week: * August 26, 1900-2030, HSC GH404, Green Owl Zone Level 4 * August 27, 1900-2030, HSC GH404, Green Owl Zone Level 4 * August 28, 1330-1500, HSC JL-399, Teal Fish Zone Level 3 (see map for zone locations<https://hsc.mb.ca/files/map-hallway.pdf>) Your voice is essential in this process. Thank you to staff who attended our first four meetings - we greatly appreciated the respectful and productive discussions about safety. If you are unable to make it in person, I encourage you to email me at cchristodoulou(a)sharedhealthmb.ca<mailto:cchristodoulou@sharedhealthmb.ca> and I will personally respond to each message. Current visits from HSC executive leadership to units will also continue in addition to these one-on-one opportunities. Thank you for your continued dedication to the patients we serve and the communities we support. Dr. Chris Christodoulou, MBChB Cum Laude DA (UK) FRCPC Interim President and CEO of Shared Health
