Perform routine dental correction and oral care using manual instruments
Assessment tool
Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024
This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to perform routine dental correction and oral care using manual instruments.
The unit applies to individuals, working as equine dental service providers, who use practical skills and knowledge to perform routine dental corrections and oral care across a range of equine industry sectors.
Legislative and regulatory requirements, including work health and safety and animal welfare, apply to the scope of work of equine dental service providers, and vary according to state/territory jurisdictions. Users must check with the relevant regulatory authority before delivery.
NOTE: The terms 'occupational health and safety' (OHS) and 'work health and safety' (WHS) generally have the same meaning in the workplace. In jurisdictions where the national model WHS legislation has not been implemented, RTOs must contextualise the unit of competency by referring to current OHS legislative requirements.
