Doug Mayer, Training Manager and Product Specialist with Dentsply Sirona Midwest, joins Ashley on this week’s episode of “Discovering DSOs with Ashley McCauley” to discuss his extensive knowledge of, and passion for, infection control. Episode Highlights: Doug’s background in dentistry and his passion for infection control The history of infection control and what DSOs need to know about the latest guidelines Comparing the roles of OSHA and the CDC How a clinician is held accountable to CDC Guidelines and Recommendations Quotes: “In 1990, it was discovered that 6 patients of a dentist in Florida discovered that they had contracted HIV, and the only thing these patients had in common was this dental office.” “Most offices consider the CDC guidelines to be the absolute ‘gold standard’, and actually, CDC considers itself to be the absolute…bare minimum standard of care.” “In my experience, DSOs may be subject to a bit more scrutiny from regulators and the media due to their corporate nature and their size normally...DSOs may be more visible now to plaintiffs’ attorneys.” “I’m not here to scare anybody – just here to inform.” “I recommend that you have all your manufacturers do that…make you aware via training the best way to provide proper infection control and maintenance.” Links: The Dental Podcast Network Channel One homepage: http://dentalpodcastnetworkchannelone.otcpn.libsynpro.com/ The Dental Podcast Network Channel Two homepage: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-dental-podcast-networks-channel-two/id1478530429 The Association of Dental Support Organizations homepage: https://www.theadso.org/ Doug’s email: doug.mayer@dentsplysirona.com
