Minor patient complaints can sometimes escalate and create stress and consequences for you as a dental practitioner. This webinar will allow you to run through some potential consequences in the complaint and claim environment in Australia while working through a detailed case-study. You will get to hear from one of Australian Dentistry's most dynamic presenters, Dr Gerard Clausen. He has had extensive experience in clinico-legal issues and is a clinical demonstrator at University of Melbourne for postgraduate prosthodontics. 

You will be provided with some key messages such as:

•Good practitioners are not immune from complaints

•How you manage the complaint effects the outcome

•You may react negatively to complaints but maintain proper behaviour- do not get angry, negative and rude

• Contact MIPS promptly and talk to a peer who can provide reassurance and instigate the right course of action
