This committee will assess the college’s formal system of quality assurance, the use of quantitative criteria for student advancement and graduation that does not compromise the delivery of comprehensive patient care, and the written statement of patient’s rights (and that it is distributed to all appropriate students, faculty, staff and to each patient). The committee will assess that the school has ensured that active patients have access to services for dental emergencies and that students, faculty and staff involved in patient care are continuously recognized in basic life support and can manage common medical emergencies. The committee will ensure that written policies and procedures are in place for the safe use of ionizing radiation and that a mechanism is in place and used to ensure adequate preclinical/clinical/lab asepsis, infection and biohazard control and disposal of hazardous waste. Lastly, the committee will evaluate the college’s policies which ensure that the confidentiality of patient information is strictly maintained.
