Good mouth care can transform someone’s daily experience, but it’s often low on the list of priorities in busy care settings.
In this free webinar, dental hygienist Harriet Buley-Snell – in partnership with oral health experts TePe – cuts through the confusion around oral care in care homes and offers clear, practical advice for getting it right.
Harriet covers everything from the impact of poor oral health - pain, infections, difficulty eating - to the simple steps care staff can take to prevent problems before they start.
The session explores:
- Tools and products that actually work in care settings
- How to carry out a mouth care assessment
- What good training looks like
- Up-to-date guidance and policies you can rely on
- Tailoring mouth care for people receiving palliative or end of life care
