Why You Need ALSD
​
1) Dental office medical emergencies happen every day across the country and no practice is immune from the possibility of a medical emergency,
2) The emergency preparation of Dental Assistants and Hygienists is one of the most critical factors in how well the dental team responds to the increasing number of medical emergencies.
3) Existing courses such as Basic Life Support (BLS), although a critical foundation for handling emergencies do not totally prepare the Dental Assistant to respond effectively to a medical emergency.

“Unfortunately, I learned the hard way that a medical emergency can in fact happen in my office to one of my patients. I wish I had already taken the ALSDA course and gotten prepared correctly. In the middle of the emergency, I realized that I needed to be the traffic cop in all of the frantic activity. I wasn’t ready for it. Don’t make the same mistake I made. Get ready now.
