A world-class facility for continuing professional development in the centre of London
LonDEC is the perfect venue for dental courses. Whether coming to LonDEC as a course participant or hiring the venue for your own education programme you will find the facilities second to none.
Seminar/lecture roomAs with all the rooms in LonDEC, the Seminar/Lecture Room is fully air conditioned and has a bank of secure day lockers with digital coded locks for delegates to secure their coats and valuables whilst they are with us. This triple projection room can comfortably seat 45 delegates for lectures and has also been designed so it can easily be set up as a meeting or seminar room for more informal teaching. The room has the very latest audio visual facilities to compliment the triple projection, including a visualizer, DVD and video player. There are also video conferencing facilities so that lectures can be sent, in real time, to audiences anywhere in the world, providing the opportunity to view lectures and conferences from wherever they are taking place locally, nationally or internationally.
Break-out areaLonDEC has a very comfortable, light, airy and spacious seating area for refreshments and relaxing. There is ample secure storage for personal effects as well as internet and power sockets available for delegates to use, plus a 40-inch plasma display. This area can also be used for dining and trade displays.
Medical emergency training plus decontamination and infection control trainingLonDEC houses a full-immersion simulation suite for team training in both infection control and the management of medical emergencies.
This allows for training in two key areas of practice in regards to patient safety – the management of medical emergencies and decontamination and infection control.
The suite has a fully equipped dental surgery with a mannequin that can be programmed to simulate an emergency that may be encountered in dental practice. This area can be used for dining and trade displays also.
Dental skills training roomThis Dental Skills Training Room is equipped with 26 state-of-the-art phantom head stations and a tutor station. Eight of the phantom head stations include video enabled operating microscopes, which are available to support instruction in minimally interventive and related techniques. Every station has its own web-enabled PC.
The PCs and display screens are connected to the digital x-ray system as well as being linked to LonDEC’s 3D preparation scanning system, which is the only one of its kind being used in a graduate training centre in the UK. The room also has video conferencing facilities and a 65-inch plasma display. The room is equipped with the very best daylight lighting, which provides perfect conditions for working in and of course colour matching dental restorations.
Each phantom head training station has air and electric hand pieces as well as an ultrasonic scaler, air and suction units.
