Pair Delivers First Professional Presentation

Congratulations to Deborah Pitman and Daisy Cornelius (not pictured), office specialists in Instrument Control, for their career achievement of giving their first professional presentations. The dynamic duo constructed and delivered a lesson for the sophomore class on proper sterilization techniques of our instruments and the sterilization cycle.

“It was fun,” Pitman said. “The sophomores are fabulous. I enjoy them so much.”

The purpose was to educate students on the kinds of sterilization techniques used at The DCG, such as peroxide and steam; to provide an overview of the process and to communicate the impact of proper procedures and handling on patient care. Both Pitman and Cornelius are certified dental assistants; Cornelius is also a state-certified sterilization technician.
