NEW IN 2009!<br />

AHA Heartsaver AED<br />

Comes to the Jewel of<br />

the Great Lakes!<br />

The <strong>Wisconsin</strong> <strong>Dental</strong> Practice<br />

Act requires all dentists and hygienists<br />

“show evidence of proficiency in the<br />

use of an automated external defibrillator<br />

in addition to showing proof of<br />

proficiency in cardiopulmonary resuscitation.”<br />

Attend one of the American<br />

Heart <strong>Association</strong> Heartsaver AED<br />

courses at this year’s Jewel of the Great<br />

Lakes <strong>Wisconsin</strong> <strong>Dental</strong> Meeting and<br />

let FIRST AID PLUS train you in<br />

the latest American Heart <strong>Association</strong><br />

guidelines for the performance of CPR<br />

and the use of an AED. Textbooks will<br />

be provided and all AHA Heartsaver<br />

AED courses meet the requirements<br />

for <strong>Wisconsin</strong> licensure.<br />

The exhibit hall at the Jewel of the Great Lakes <strong>Wisconsin</strong> <strong>Dental</strong> Meeting is a prime place for you to meet with your existing suppliers,<br />

find new products for your dental office and check out the latest technologies. Even though the economy is sluggish, you’ll find<br />

the exhibit hall is the perfect FIT for your schedule and the show specials will be a perfect FIT for your pocketbook. It’s also a FITting<br />

place to meet your staff for lunch between courses.<br />

Still aren’t sure it is a FIT for you? Then perhaps knowing that each booth you get your badge scanned at will provide you with an<br />

entry in a drawing to win a Nintendo Wii with a Wii FIT package! One package will be given away each day 15 minutes prior to the<br />

hall closing. The more booths you visit, the more chances to win.<br />

The following is a list of exhibitors signed up to support our meeting as of early March. Please support them by stopping by their booth<br />
