2 CONSENT FOR SCHOOL DENTAL INSPECTIONS AND DENTAL EPIDEMIOLOGICAL SURVEYS Dear Colleague Purpose 1. To provide revised guidance on the issue of consent for both school dental inspections and dental epidemiological surveys. Background 2. We have recently become aware that the Department of Health in England has revised its guidance on negative consent for dental surveys. The previous guidance had implied that it was acceptable to rely on negative consent, but lawyers at the Department of Health and the Welsh Assembly Government are now advising that this guidance should no longer be followed. Advice 3. The functions of Local Health Boards (Dental Public Health) (Wales) Regulations 2006 provide that a local health board will have the function of dental inspections of pupils in attendance at schools maintained by Local Education Authorities. As dental inspections and dental epidemiological surveys will inevitably involve physical contact between a dentist and a child, it is necessary to obtain consent from the child (if he/she is competent to give consent) or from a person with parental responsibility for the child, in accordance with the Guidance on Consent to Examination and Treatment (issued with WHC (2002)42). Whilst the risk of any proceedings being brought against a dentist or Local Health Board in relation to a school dental inspection or epidemiological survey might be considered low, in the event that there was, a dentist may not be able to prove that consent had been obtained simply on the basis that a letter had been sent out to parents and no objection had been received. 4. We are aware of concerns about the impact that obtaining positive consent might have on the NHS oral health epidemiology programmes within England and Wales. Where programmes are surveying older children eg year olds it is likely that a child of this age would be competent to consent to the dental examination, provided it is explained to them what the process involves, for what purpose the information obtained will be used, and that they can refuse to take part if they wish. If the competent year old child consents, this will be sufficient. 5. In relation to younger children, along with the Department of Health, we are exploring whether positive consent to dental inspections/surveys obtained from the child s parent (or relevant person with parental responsibility) when their child begins school would be sufficient proof of consent. 6. The Welsh Assembly Government considers that a dentist performing these inspections and surveys might be able to rely on such consent, as long as sufficient information is provided to the parent at the time that consent is obtained to enable their consent to be fully informed. It would be good practice to inform parents how many times the procedures would take place and in which school years, and that they may withdraw their consent at any time. It would also be good practice to write to parents to inform them when examinations/surveys are about to be carried out and reminding them that they may withdraw consent if they wish. 2
3 7. As this will be additional information that would need to be obtained from parents at the time their child starts school, we will need to discuss with Assembly education colleagues and Local Health Boards how this might be best achieved prior to issuing further formal guidance. Yours sincerely Wendy Chatham of Quality, Standards and Safety Improvement ate Department of Health and Social Services 3
