The video training involves two components: 1. Didactic component 2. Practical component The objectives of the training materials are to provide non-dental professionals who will be using the M-OHAT an understanding of the purpose of the M-OHAT, its components and the advantages and limitations of M-OHAT. The training materials are structured in a way that allows for identifying normal and changes in oral health and to identify when to refer to an oral health care professional. The practical component allows for application of the didactic component to clinical practice as well as detailing the ergonomic and infection control requirements of undertaking oral health assessments with individuals in residential aged care facility settings.
