Complaints & Reports Outcomes

 

Case File: 22-0281

Decision Date:
April 22, 2024

Caution

Current Status:
Completed
As a result of a complaint, the Inquiries, Complaints and Reports Committee decided to caution Dr. William Slade Prusin as follows:

• Before initiating treatment, the Dentist must ensure that he has obtained the patient’s informed consent to the treatment. As part of that process, the patient must be provided with the information regarding the diagnosis, the nature and purpose of the proposed treatment along with the risks and benefits of such treatment, the treatment alternatives available along with the associated risks and benefits, the likely consequences of not having the treatment, and the cost of each treatment option. Although either verbal or written consent are both legally acceptable, it is advisable to confirm verbal consent in writing where risks are significant. Regardless of whether the patient consents in writing or orally, the dentist should keep a detailed record of the nature of the conversation, the information provided, and the patient’s decision.

• To reflect upon his pattern of non-compliant behavior and take seriously the previous advice he has received about his informed consent practices and the legibility of his records. Clear, accurate, and up-to-date patient records are essential to the delivery of high quality care. He must incorporate the advice he has previously received into his practice. Any similar conduct in the future will likely lead to more serious outcomes.
