Probity for dentists

Taking place on Tuesday, 3 December between 9.30am and 12.30pm, this three hour interactive Zoom course addresses issues surrounding probity and ethics in everyday working practice

Public trust in the dental profession relies on dentists being honest and transparent in their professional and personal lives.
 
Dentists need to be aware of the implications if they do not behave honestly and ethically and understand what steps to take to comply with these standards in difficult situations.
 
This course gives delegates will the opportunity to explore case examples highlighting common scenarios that could lead to probity issues for dentists.

Topics will include:

  • The meaning of probity and levels of professionalism expected of dentists
  • Patient safety issues arising from a breach of probity
  • Regulatory guidance and implications when probity has been breached
  • Learning from mistakes and reflective practice

This course is led by MDDUS risk adviser, Kay Louise Grant.

Upon completion, a certificate detailing three hours of verifiable CPD will be provide.
