Hello everybody Andrea here with dental l let's talk about how to get your portfolio done before the holidays, no stress, including your practice profile, so the whole thing the portfolio practice profile. And I, I do also review your portfolio when you're done, so if you have signed up for the online portfolio workshop, I will leave the link for you guys on the bottom. If you sign up for that send me your portfolio and your practice profile, I will email you on how to do that. And I will look through it for you before you actually submit it to the CDHO I don't change anything for you, but I will write a full page sometimes more. On things I feel you might need to improve on things you might have to change. Answers that I know are not correct so let's say in your practice profile, if I know you're going to get audited if you say no to something i'm going to tell you. So it really is great so sign up for that course, if you need help, but in general, I want to talk to you guys about how to get your portfolio done before the holidays, so in the online. profile course I go through everything, so I go through i'm actually just looking at my notes right now so don't mind me. I go through all of the different indicators so even when you are writing your practice profile there's a fill in the blank where you have to write down exactly how you are logging. Your sterilizing and what you are doing for the monitoring so you need to know your chemical indicators and the biological indicator so those papers. And spore testing, you need to you need to know about internal and external indicators, so I talked to you about all of that. You need to know in general how to monitor your sterilizer so how to test it what to do if there's a sterilizing error how you log that the different steps that need to be done. quarantining I talked to you guys about all of that, so you know exactly what to do. I talked to you guys about waterline disinfecting so running the lines how to shock your lines and how to test your lines and how often these things should be done and read. Red flags basically so I talked to you guys a lot about red flags for your practice, so what to really avoid to try to not get audited if you're going through your practice profile if you're saying certain things. Then I will tell you Okay, this is what you need to fix ASAP before you submit your portfolio, you will likely get audited depending on how you do your portfolio what you write down for infection control sterilizing manuals all of that. red flags for the CDHO that will almost guarantee you will get that phone interview or the onsite audit for sure, so I talked to you guys about that. I talked to you guys about cleaning solution, so what types of cleaning solutions, you need plus how to properly mix them, so I talked about that. ad pie, so this is more about your practice profile and your record keeping but I go through ad pie, so I talked about the new perio system the AAP. I talked about clinical attachment levels clinical attachment loss, however, you want to say it. I go through that and how to calculate it because that can be very confusing for a lot of people, whether the gums are puffy swollen or if there's gingival recession. I go through how to evaluate so if you're trying to tell your client to brush twice a day. Use the water pick every day and use the mouthwash and then you see them in three months and they're doing none of that. Well, how do you record that in the chart, how do you talk to your client, do you say oh well too bad just keep on doing it. Or do you try to change things what works for them, so I talk about that also the CDHO wants you to be evaluating. I go through planning, how do you plan out properly your actual appointments depending on if the client has perio if they have gingivitis if they have gingival recession. If there's a lot of plaque a lot of charter if you need to see them every three months or is it every four months is it every six months. I go through planning and implementation with you as well I go through appointments, so how do you work with your client to make.  So you can look at my templates and say oh i'm not writing that in my chart, should I be I go through templates as well, so it's wonderful. I go through plaque turtle on Turner oral irrigation how you should be writing that in the chart what if a patient has heavy plaque heavy tartar. The gums are bleeding everywhere what you should be doing per appointment as per the CDHO.  I go through manual so that's always a very scary thing for people I go through the right manuals you should be having. Now, if you have the onsite audit I go through all of the manuals in detail, meaning all of the different logs there's literally hundreds of pages, maybe even close to 1000 pages. Of manuals that you should have so I don't give you the actual manuals in the online portfolio course, but if you do want them, so it is literally printing them off. You would just fill in the information for your practice that would be in the onsite audit course, so I will put that link to. If you want that, if you want to be prepared for your audit it's a great course if you're going through the onsite audit, you need this course, because I will give you everything to be organized. But back to the portfolio course I go through handpieces how they want you to take them apart lubricate sterilize them, including the motors. I go through all of the logs you should have so for sterilizing if there's any cycle faults logs on how to clean your piezo. How to clean your cavatron how to purge the line so all of those logs that you should be doing every day weekly or monthly in some cases.  How you dispose of that, what about sharps do you have a sharps container in every single room. You should be it's it's no longer supposed to be just in the reprocessing area area. What about cleaning up spills, do you know how to do that, what if a client is sick and mom it's everywhere, do you know how to clean that up properly. I go through that vital signs are you taking vital signs on every patient or only at new patient exams, how do you document that. COVID pre screening and actual forms I go through the exact forms that I use how I pre screen my clients and I go from there. Medical history, do you have a good and detailed medical history form you probably do most offices do but I go through it anyway. Oral cancer screening, are you marking that down on every single appointment, are you doing oral cancer screenings what about consent forms in your. record keeping do you say that the client has consented both verbally and written that needs to be in there. And overall you guys, of course, for the online portfolio course I go through how to do your portfolio how to go through the practice profile. And how to write your goals and goal statements I go through learning activities and how to fill in the blanks for your goals. What you had learned how to fill that that out plus the next one, which is what you have implemented in your practice, did you learn something and then are you implementing that in your practice. I go through the whole thing so your portfolio the practice profile it's exhausting, but we talk about everything that way you don't have to sit there alone at the dining room table wondering. What am I doing what courses, do I start with how do I write my goals, where do I start i'm never going to get done.
