REMINDER: Locker Installation Project

Please be advised that additional lockers will be installed in the KEC students' lab and rooms 8A.109 and 8A.126. Contractors have begun work on January 13th and will continue through to February 24th. We anticipate minimal disruption during this time.

ATTENTION DDS Students: Lab Shelf and Loaned Item Cleanup

DDS Students are required to transfer their items from their KEC Student Lab shelves into their designated assigned lab lockers.

Transfer must be completed by February 5, 2025

Any items left on the shelves after this deadline will be discarded

REMINDER: OHC is a Scent-Free Zone

Please refrain from wearing or using heavily scented products, including perfumes, colognes, hairsprays, shampoos, lotions, creams and deodorants.

ATTENTION STUDENTS: Setting up operatories prior to clinic start 

Please be reminded that setting up instruments in OHC operatories before clinic start times, while housekeeping is cleaning, is considered an IPC (Infection Prevention and Control) infraction. To allow housekeeping staff to thoroughly clean and empty trash bins in the operatories, all instruments must be properly stored during non clinical times. Failure to adhere to this policy may result in an IPC violation.

Instrument pickup times are as follows:

8:00 am for a 8:30 am clinic start

12:30 pm for a 1:00 pm clinic start
