About Carol Paige:

Email: carol@prnconsult.com

Carol Paige received her Bachelor of Science from the Medical College of Georgia, School of Dental Hygiene. Ms. Paige then underwent extensive interview and testing procedures with Pride Institute, a grass roots dental practice management consulting organization, then trained and joined their organization as a dental  practice management consultant in 1984. After years of implementing “pre-fab dental consulting programs,” Carol was convinced that management plans should be designed around each office’s unique needs and not a pre-designed program best suited to the needs of the consulting firm. To these ends, Carol established PRN Consulting, Inc. in 1988 and now works closely with dentists and staff to create tailor made solutions for their specific management and marketing problems.

About the Webinar

Navigating a return to dental practice will be filled with many challenges.  While we don’t yet know when that will be, fully understanding the challenges of practicing within a world where COVID-19 exists but a vaccine does not is paramount. In an effort to flesh out the risks this virus presents to the practice of dentistry as well as potential clinical initiatives to mitigate those risks, the GDA has brought together two credible voices on the front line of these issues. 

Learning Objectives

• Understand risks and modes of COVID-19 transmission.
• Examine the current state of the pandemic and the public health projections moving forward. 
• Understand current CDC and OSHA guidelines for care.
• Identify PPE options.
• Understand aerosol control options.
• Identify patient flow and scheduling strategies to minimize exposure potential.
• Understand potential risk and mitigation strategies for patient, provider and auxiliary staff.
