Frequently asked questions.
ONSITE COURSES
Is this training suitable if we are preparing for accreditation?
Yes. Sessions are aligned to the current standards and guidelines referenced by the Dental Board of Australia, including AS 5369:2023 and the National Safety and Quality Primary and Community Healthcare Standards. Teams leave with a clear understanding of what is required and the confidence to apply it.
Can we take the team offsite for the day?
Yes. If your practice prefers to hold the session away from the clinical environment, we can work with you to find an arrangement that suits your team. Get in touch to discuss.
How is the training structured?
The session follows a consistent format built around understanding the purpose of infection prevention in the context of practising safely in Australia. It includes an engaging quiz, facilitated discussion to support sound decision-making, and practical guidance to improve workflows and efficiency. The focus is on mastering first principles so they can be applied broadly across the practice.
