If it is necessary to perform other procedures on the patient prior to the WREB, then the patient must become a patient of record at the Dental Branch. The student may then go to any Patient Care Coordinator for CIS registration and electronic assignment of the patient. A treatment plan must be developed for the patient and all procedures per-formed prior to the WREB are to be scheduled by the student in the CIS and paid for by the patient at the time of service, just as for all other patients of record. For WREB patients of record who already have radiographs, Radiology staff will duplicate the films to be used for the WREB at no cost to the student or patient. The Dental Branch will again be conducting a series of clinical updates this summer.
Attendance is required for all clinical faculty, staff, students, and residents.
Topics will again cover Infection Control, Medical Emergencies, and Risk Management. New residents, preceptors, and continuing predoctoral dental and dental hygiene students are required to take the quiz. Current faculty, staff, and residents who attend updates are exempt from the quiz. Those who do not attend updates must satisfy requirement by viewing videotapes and taking the quiz. The Clinical Education and Patient Care update will be offered in early August only.
