Working as part of the orthodontic team, responsible for administration, stock ordering decontamination and surgery checks. I also cover for the other nurses when required and for staff at our Lutterworth surgery.

Orthodontic/Dental Nurse at Harborough Orthodontics/Active Smile (2008-01 – 2015-07)
I have been working as part of the orthodontic team since January 2011. I have been trained as an orthodontic nurse by Dr Bhavra to work with him and his assistant Dr Robert Dorr. When required I also work with Mr Bhavra at his orthodontic practice Old School House in Kettering.
I ensure that all the orthodontic cards and models are filed, I write all the patient letters and keep the orthodontic pathway spreadsheet updated and I put the patient photographs onto the system and TC the claims on behalf of the orthodontic team. I do stock checks and inform Dr Bhavra when we are running low so stock can be ordered. When I am not required in Orthodontics I check general stock and do monthly orders and I cover surgery checks and decontamination room checks to ensure the dental team are doing the autoclave and ultrasonic testing as required.
When necessary I also cover reception duties.
Care Assistant at Kibworth Court Residential Home (2007-01 – 2007-12)
Kibworth Court is a dementia registered home and therefore had a mix of residents all with different needs. I assisted with all aspects of personal care and helped with meals and drinks as some of the residents needed assistance to ensure they ate and drank. i accompanied the district nurse on her rounds when required and noted her comments on the contact sheet of the individuals she attended to. I was the named carer for four residents which meant the resident and their family members knew who to contact or who to talk to if they needed anything, I had to ensure my residents had baths and showers and I was responsible for updating their care plans and informing family members if they needed more clothing or toiletries.

Dental Nurse at Kibworth Dental Practice (2003-04 – 2006-02)
I was trained by Dr Raj Pancholi and Dr Manesh Gokani as a dental nurse and enjoyed my time at Kibworth. I left as the hours were being reduced to part time and i really needed a full time job.
