CPR Training

The introduction of the new dental contract in which Continuing Postgraduate Education Allowance is included in the base contracts for dentists means that the Deanery no longer approves courses or providers for CPDA. The need for practices to continue to train their staff to handle medical emergencies still remains. The training organisations listed below we believe provide appropriate courses for the dental team.

If you would like a course you attend in the South West to be approved please contact Debbie.Marriott@bristol.ac.uk  for further information. (Tel: 0117 9284524)
