Week 2, day 1, 3rd day in Clinic

Hey there,
Survived week one! YAY! and Had a great Weekend! Got to sleep in with the kiddos this morning. LOVE the half day off monday morning.
Tiauna and I just took turns having each other rinse with mouthwash and be a patient to practice rinsing with the air/water syringe , saliva ejector and HVE.
We have also went over the beginning of the day procedures and barriers. We seem to be done so fast. Just waiting for the official demonstration of the tear down procedures so we can clean up the operatory.
We have now gone over the tear down. And walking our dirty tray to the ultrasonic solution putting instruments in. I have never shut off the ultrasonic to put in additional instruments. RELEARN! Stop and then restart for 15 mins. Got it.
Able to pass off PPE PE today. Good reminders how to keep cross contamination and infectious materials from being a hazard.
OKay we just finished learning the Post Clinic Maintenance. Waxing the metal parts, running lines with Solution.
Was going great till I was refilling the solution bottle and instead of turning the water off I turned it full blast and it went everywhere up all over the walls, me, instruments that were drying. UGH!! Tiauna was the only witness but still embarrassing!!
All done I think. I am sure we will be reviewing and touching over the next things on the list.
Good day. The op's smell like a waxed car.
Tah Tah for now.
Marilyn
