Responsibilities are as previously noted but with the exception that I was not provided with nursing support for treatment in the surgery or for cleaning and sterilisation of instruments. I was also responsible for closing the building at the end of the day and ensuring that security procedures were followed.

Responsibilities were similar to my role at Priorlsee but I was provided with nursing support for cleaning and sterilisation of instruments

I worked here for a few months prior to having my first child. It was mutually beneficial as the practice was short of a Hygienist for a few months, and I was finding the commute into London increasingly difficult due to my pregnancy. I was approached by the dentist I used to work for as a dental nurse for many years ,as we had stayed in good contact throughout my training at Guys Hospital. My role was as outlined in previous job history and without nursing support.

This was a small one dentist practice and I was not provided with general nursing support to complete my role as a dental hygienist , but otherwise my responsibilities were as outline previously.

My responsibilities were the same as when I worked for Jonathan Tan and this was also a one dentist practice.
