Immunisation records
The practice must develop and maintain regularly updated immunisation/health records for dental staff. It is recommended
that dental staff also maintain their own immunisation and screening records.
Education
Dental staff must be provided with comprehensive training in the full range of infection control procedures that they are
expected to know about and carry out in their day-to-day work. Regular refresher training is also appropriate to ensure
that the necessary infection control measures are being complied with and understood.
New clinical dental staff should complete an induction program. This pre-service training should include the practical
implementation of occupational health and safety and infection control measures used in the practice.
