Getting to know our dental team - An interview with Trainee Dental Nurse Katie...

What made you decide to train to be a Dental Nurse?

I started at Crossbank Dental Care in the Front of House team and enjoyed learning about the clinical side of the business and wanted to learn by training to become a Dental Nurse.

When did you join the Crossbank Dental Care team?

I joined the team in March 2018.

What has been the most challenging and enjoyable parts of your training?

The most challenging part about my training is the textbook learning. I find a hands-on learning approach much easier.

The most enjoyable part of my training is interacting with patients.

What are you planning to do in your professional future?

I would like to expand on skills, including sedation nursing, as I love working within the surgical side of dentistry.

If you had to swap jobs for one day in the practice, which job would you swap to and why?

A Clinician, I don't know why, just because.
