Workplace Violence Prevention: Liability Risks & Recommendations for the Dental Practice

September 20, 2019 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm EDT

- Free

Welcome, Association of Dental Support Organizations (ADSO) Members!

Violence or abuse experienced in the workplace is a critical issue that many organizations face. Dental professionals are at increased risk for experiencing workplace violence due to their close contact with patients as well as working in an occupational environment marked by stress and burnout. It is imperative that dental offices be well educated and fully informed as they deal with this daunting topic. This course will review the topic of violence in the workplace, discuss steps that can be taken to prevent or diffuse its effects and most importantly, explain how to create and implement an effective workplace violence prevention plan. The purpose of this course is to provide dental professionals with
information so they may better recognize, address, and prevent violence in their workplaces.

Course Objectives:

      • Describe the scope of workplace violence in healthcare, including in the dental office
      • Recognize risk factors and hazards commonly associated with workplace violence
