Dental Sedation Nursing Course
Places are available unless otherwise stated.There is no need to telephone to ask whether places are available.
A short course leading to The Certificate in Dental Sedation Nursing awarded by the NEBDN. It is taught to the syllabus of the NEBDN. Students do NOT have to work in a practice which undertakes regular sedations as they cann acquire practical experience from sister practices which do undertake sedations.
With conscious sedations [Oral, RA, IV] the GDC’s rules are clearly stated: there must be a “2nd appropriate person” present who can be a dentist, doctor, or a DN with the NEBDN Dental Sedation Nursing qualification
The course prepares DNs to the standard required of the “second appropriate person” providing the practical skills & theoretical knowledge necessary to assist during routine sedations: Oral/RA/ IV.
Topics covered include medico-legal, life support, monitoring of the patient, anxiety control, anatomy, physiology and pharmacology.

The NEBDN Dental Sedation Examinations are on the 3rd Sat of every Mar & Sept. To take this course/exam DNs
