Description:
This course is designed to help doctors fully meet their annual OSHA and infection control obligations by training the entire dental team, including clinical and front office staff. Practices that attend together are permitted to list Karen Daw as their OSHA trainer of record for 2026, strengthening documentation, and providing clear, defensible proof of team-wide training.
Karen is a nationally recognized safety expert, speaker, consultant, and author trusted by dental societies, practices and healthcare organizations across the country. She will be arriving fresh off her national speaking tour and wrapping up with the Cincinnati Dental community, bringing the latest regulatory updates, inspection trends, and real-world compliance insights directly to your team.
Her sessions blend enterprise risk management principles with practical, laugh-out-loud delivery – because training people remember is training that actually reduces risk.
Why practices attend as a full team:
• Enables doctors to meet OSHA and infection control requirements in a complete and defensible manner.
• Aligns the entire practice around consistent safety and documentation standards.
• Ensures front office staff understand their role during inspections and audits.
• Reduces operational risk through proactive, risk-based training.
• Delivers real-world, engaging education your team will actually retain.
These live programs consistently fill quickly with practices that prefer to complete their annual requirements together rather than piecing training together throughout the year.
We encourage doctors to register early with their entire team for games, prizes, and education event that is truly one-of-a-kind!
