• Responsibilities for the entire team in analyzing the schedule efficiently, resulting in desired outcomes

Patients may have mixed feelings about returning to the dental practice after the closures have lifted. While they may look forward to seeing you and your team and beginning or continuing a treatment, they are looking for reassurance that your practice and team are practicing the recommended safety measures. Take the time to shape their experience and address their concerns by:

• Proactively communicating your safety measures and plan to your patients through your website, patient communication system and social platforms
• Gaining the verbal skills necessary to ease your patients of concerns, build rapport, and overcome possible objections via the telephone
• Outlining the key steps at patient check-in and check-out
• Empowering the entire team with the verbal skills needed for critical conversations with patients prior to and during their appointment from what to expect at their appointment to what your practice is doing to ensure patient safety and protection
• Understanding the importance of daily huddles and the key items to cover during your meetings at this time
