Who is this event for
This free training is specifically for the Children Centres, Nurseries and Schools who would like to set up Supervised Tooth Programme (STP) in their setting.
What does this event cover
This training update will focus on the new guideline sent out by PHE, please see below:
Updated guidance on EY settings, toothbrushing specifically mentioned (check section 3.6): https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-covid-19-early-years-and-childcare-closures/coronavirus-covid-19-early-years-and-childcare-closures
3.6 Supervised toothbrushing programmes
PHE have confirmed that supervised toothbrushing programmes may be re-established within settings using the dry brushing method.
The wet brushing model is not recommended because it is considered more likely to risk droplet and contact transmission and offers no additional benefit to oral health over dry toothbrushing.
For information on the cleaning and storage of toothbrushes and storage systems, see the COVID-19: guidance for supervised toothbrushing programmes in early years and school settings.
