Welcome and Introduction
10.00 - 11.20
Paul Redmond – Talking about my generation
There has always been a ‘generation gap’ and problems relating to communication
and understanding can often result leading to conflict which could otherwise be
avoided. As technology has accelerated the pace of change within the current
environment, the gulf in understanding is widening. This has huge significance
in terms of our interactions with patients, colleagues and team members of all
ages, and not least in our family and personal lives. This presentation will inform,
challenge, captivate and entertain you – whatever your age.

Dr James Foster, Dr Annalene Weston – Do you see what I see?
and Dr Mike Rutherford
James, Annalene and Mike will deliver this case-based session looking at the
type and nature of problems we see. They will walk through individual cases to
help demonstrate how you can reduce your own risk. Complaints, claims and
regulatory cases come in all different shapes and sizes, however the same issues
often arise. What are these and what can we learn from analysing the details of
what happened and why?

problems and their consequences, as well as practical tips for your practice.

book Risk Management in General Dental Practice. John is known for his lively
presentation style and during his session, John will explore how to manage difficult
