MediCruit, a Henry Schein affiliate, providing recruitment solutions to the dental sector, has announced its new collaboration with the Dental Nurse Network Academy – an organisation offering flexible, affordable, accredited training to dental nurses as well as high-quality learning material and student support – to extend its range of professional education to dental nurses in the United Kingdom.
Through this new relationship, MediCruit offer two new courses that will help dental professionals achieve extended skills for their profession.
NEBDN (National Examining Board for Dental Nurses) Fluoride Varnish
The NEBND Fluoride Varnish course is a qualification specially designed to help dental professionals develop vital skills at applying fluoride varnish under the prescription of a dentist or as part of a structured oral health programme.
Medical Emergencies
This course offers explanation and guidance around legislation and improves the ability to deal with medical emergencies in dentistry. It will enable dental professionals to understand the importance of recording and updating a patient’s medical history and explains the theoretical process of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR). It helps with the identification and correct usage of the right emergency equipment and treatment for a competent response to any common medical emergencies.

The MediCruit team delivers a professional and superior service by listening to and understanding the customers’ expectations to help ensure that they find the ideal match for their team and for the candidates’ career aspirations.
