Welcome to What I Wish I Knew by Dental Head Start. This is a podcast where we learn from people that have been there, made the mistakes, learnt the lessons and have developed into the accomplished dental professionals they are today.
It’s your weekly mentoring session.
An Adverse Outcome Is the Worst Day of Everyones Life
Dr Annalene Weston
It doesn’t always go to plan. While we take every effort to prevent adverse outcomes, they are always a possible occurance when practicing dentistry.
In this episode Dr Weston shares a story, her own event that she vividly recalls, helping us recogonise it can happen to anyone. And the message she wants to get across is this is a terrible situation for the patient but also for her staff and herself.
How we manage this situation, including ourselves is crucial in coping. Dr Weston walks us through managing the unthinkable.
