HYGIENE edgeUCATORS March event

Session Description:

Legacy errors in infection control spread faster than glitter in a preschool art room. Once they show up, they are everywhere. In this power-packed hour, we will hit the top five habits that sneak into dental practices and quietly wreck compliance and safety: sloppy PPE routines, one-wipe operatory turnovers, ignored waterlines, neglected suction maintenance, and packaging wet instruments.  (Note that this session will not be recored)

Learning Objectives:

Identify common legacy errors in PPE use, operatory disinfection, waterline protocols, suction maintenance, and instrument drying.

Apply simple, evidence-based steps to prevent cross-contamination and support effective sterilization and waterline safety.
