The Making of a Successful Practice…by Design We believe that in order to have a thriving practice it must be grounded in your purpose and passion in life. Therefore, in our first step we invest careful time with you and your team initially:
- Identifying your #1 primary concern regarding the practice
- Reviewing your short- and long-term goals for the practice
- Identifying one or two areas where we can immediately implement new techniques, technology and strategies for structure and productivity
- Exploring your personal goals beyond the practice
Investing time examining all areas of your practice and life is essential in getting to the core of where and how transformation is possible. We guide you through the process of visualizing what you truly want and exactly what that looks like…your team, your ideal day, your ideal patient and the lifestyle you and your family deserve. The Hygiene Department We believe a solid hygiene department is foundational and reflects the overall value and success of the practice. Therefore, we are committed to diving deep into identifying areas we can expand services and implement systems to increase productivity and elevate the hygiene team and patient care. In developing a new or refining an existing hygiene department we offer:
- One-on-one, laser-focused coaching and mentoring support for each hygienist
- Implementation of strategies to increase efficiency, productivity and flow
- Assisted-hygiene education and support (if it is a fit for the practice)
- Total team enrollment, coaching and development of enhanced communication, team-building and leadership
- Expansion of services menu to enhance high-level of care and service
- Attention to ease, comfort, convenience and extraordinary patient experience
We spend time interviewing each hygienist and discover their greatest challenges and their greatest achievements in their work. We also uncover their unique strengths and gifts that make them a powerful fit for having mastery and transformation of the hygiene department. We follow a proven formula of examining seven distinct areas which allow your hygienist to have breakthroughs that produce immediate results AND provide a lasting impact.
What are those seven areas?
1. Satisfaction
2. Goal setting
3. Co-diagnosing
4. Time management
5. Services and Systems
6. Continuing Education
7. Instruments and equipment
The Team
The role each team member plays and the collaboration of your team as a whole is paramount to the success of any practice. Your team is not a group of people or a “staff” who move around your office performing the necessary duties to complete the day, checkmark their list and lock up on their way out. Your team is your signature. They represent you and carry your message in who they are being with every person who calls your office, patient who walks in the door and to each and every individual they come into contact with out in the world. The vision for your practice rests in your hands and theirs. Designing your dream team is a precise and delicate order to get right. We work closely to support you in doing just that.
At Hygiene by Design, we offer support in the following areas:
- Interview and hiring process
- Team building and communication
- Design systems for productivity and efficiency
- Collaboratively create action plans to support each team member and their role — both in and out of the practice
- Half- or full-day training workshops incorporating the entire team or specific departments within the practice
We create an interactive and fun learning environment along with built-in retention strategies. Your team will not only have more fun learning they will have breakthroughs in targeted areas and be able to apply new skills with confidence immediately.
