PTIFA

Level 2 – Team Training

Overview

 

This course is designed for non-injecting team members to help successfully integrate botulinum toxin services (ie: Dysport®/Botox®) into a dental or medical practice. This course is focused on the theory and clinical skills required to provide the highest level of patient care for your botulinum toxin patients. We find that the practices who are most successful with botulinum toxin are the ones that engage and cross-train their entire team.

Course Outline

Level 2 – Team Training course is a two-day session that runs concurrently with the Practitioner’s Level 2 course.

 

Day 1 – Lecture (Friday)

Team Members attend a separate lecture from the practitioners. The lecture is focused on providing your team with the basic and necessary information for offering botulinum toxin for both therapeutic and aesthetic treatment within a dental or medical office, including photography, record keeping, supplies, marketing and billing for botulinum toxin patients.

 

Day 2 – Clinical Hands-on (Saturday)

Team Members receive hands-on clinical experience assisting practitioners as they inject patient models. Team Members will have the opportunity to see how the patient is seen from consultation, to treatment, to walking out and billing the patient. They will have the opportunity to practice reconstituting and loading syringes, taking the Roberts Facial Rejuvenation Photography series, uploading and digitally storing the patient records and photographs in FACETEC.

Team Members graduate from Level 2 with the knowledge, skills and confidence to successfully integrate treatment into a dental or medical practice. Team Members who successfully complete Level 2 are provided with a certificate of completion, as well as the necessary forms. Through their Practitioner, they are able to register for the online Support Study Club – offering case support and more.

FAQS

Who is a Team Member and why are they recommended to come to the course?
Team Members are any non-injecting staff member within your office, such as reception, office managers, chair-side assistants, hygienists, etc. We have found that the offices who cross-train their entire teams are the most successful integrating treatment into their practice. Team Members play an important role facilitating the integration into your practice. We highly encourage you register your entire team for the Level 2 – Team Training course.
How many Team Members should I bring for the Level 2 – Team Training course?
We find that the practices who cross-train their entire team are the ones who are most successful integrating treatment into their office.
Can I register my Team Members closer to the course date?
Yes. Typically we can accommodate Team Member registrations, however the practitioner seats are limited due to the low Instructor to Student ratio.
Can my Team Member also act as a patient model?
Yes! We highly recommend that your team member act as a patient model for you at the Level 2 course. Your practice will benefit from your team member's enthusiasm and their ability to relate their own personal experience regarding treatment with patients.
Testimonials
Often the expense of taking courses away from home discourages us from bringing our team, but in this case it is a must. Having the whole team on-board, from reception to hygiene and assistants, really helps with seamless integration of this technique into the office. The curriculum for the team was as detailed as mine, and totally different as their part of integrating and preparing patients is very important and totally different than ours. My staff loved Dr. Roberts and his team and left feeling as confident about the process as I did. What a great way to rejuvenate our team learning something that will bring so many positives to our office!! We are booked for level three next year and we can’t wait!! Thank you again.
