The costs of an infection control breach are huge!

Prime Practice Compliance, a division of Prime Practice, is launching Infection Prevention Online Self-Assessment Audits. The Online Self-Assessment Audit will allow Australian and New Zealand dental practices to undertake fast, cost-effective assessments that are fully compliant with the current A/NZ standards for infection prevention.


The Audit tool will produce a comprehensive audit report and action plan, fully referenced and up to date, so practices can ensure they are compliant. Reports are produced instantly once the audit is finalised.

The Online Self-Assessment Audit has been created by Infection Prevention Solutions, the UK's market leader in Infection Prevention and Control services. Prime Practice has an exclusive distribution agreement in place for Australia and New Zealand.

"Prime Practice remains committed to identifying scalable solutions that will enhance our practice solutions offering. We are excited to be partnering with a forward-looking industry leader in this essential area and in an effort to assist practices to meet their compliance obligations," said Wayne Shainfeld, Joint CEO at Prime Practice.

Infection Prevention Solutions (UK) have completed over 30,000 web-based audits and over 6000 in-practice audits in the last eight years.

Karen Foulis, Managing Director of Infection Prevention Solutions said "Like Prime, our company provides a unique pro-active specialist Infection Control service incorporating consultation, audits, training programs, staff support, development and publication of policies and procedures manuals. We are delighted to be entering into this partnership with a like-minded and leading organisation".

Megan Sharpe, General Manager Practice Solutions ANZ said "We are delighted to be making infection prevention and sterilisation more accessible using these new tools. Infection Prevention Solutions are the perfect partner to help us build an infection-free dental community across Australia and New Zealand".
