NCA ANZ are the industry leaders in ISO accreditation for dental practices and are a wealth of knowledge regarding all things infection control in the dental space!
This is particularly relevant as per the ADA the Health Practitioner Regulation (New South Wales) Regulation 2025 came into effect last month, with the legislative update notably strengthening infection control obligations and enhancing record-keeping standards for dental practitioners in New South Wales.
KEY CHANGES INCLUDE:
- Formal inclusion of dental practitioners as “relevant health practitioners” now mandated to adhere to the prescribed infection control standards (including AS 5369:2023 for reprocessing RMDs) under Part 2 and Schedule 2 of the new regulation.
- Updated record-keeping requirements, setting minimum standards for documentation, retention periods, and secure storage—ensuring alignment with national professional guidelines and patient safety frameworks.
These enhancements reinforce the ADA’s longstanding advocacy for rigorous infection control and meticulous patient records—cornerstones of ethical, quality dental practice. The ADA advises all members to:
- Review and update their infection control protocols to meet or exceed the requirements of AS5369:2023, which is the cornerstone standard for reprocessing RMDs;
- Exercise caution regarding suppliers or educational content that undermines the Board’s and ADA’s evidence-based standards such as AS5369:2023;
- For dentists practicing in NSW, ensure clinical notes comply with the new documentation rules under this new regulation, particularly for long-term retention and accessibility.
