Boost Practice Performance with Efficiency Training

My name is Angie Bachman, lead clinical trainer with Design Ergonomics Efficiency Training and I can guarantee you that not all training is created equal - especially clinical training. What makes up your clinical department? Personnel, Sterilization, Operatories, Lab, Technology, Supplies, Training (hiring) to name a few. This list could get pretty long. I know of training for administration, practice management, insurance, and marketing - and there are some really good programs out there - but, I have yet to discover an onsite, hands-on clinical training program as comprehensive as Efficiency Training.

I love it when I walk into a practice and everyone says, “I love my _____ rep.” When I ask what they love the most about them, they say, “My rep always gets me the best price with the best deals.” But your supply rep does NOT have your best interest at heart. Is it really a deal? Do you really need that side cabinetry? (see 6 Ways to Improve Dental Office Inventory Management). I made a commitment to you when I started writing this blog. I promised to share real-life experiences. I was a sales rep for one of the “big 3” dental supply companies. It was a hiccup in my life. Sales meetings included what’s hot on the menu. “ Sell this and you’ll make an additional $$.” Looking around the room, the wheels were turning. Commission based or not, I couldn’t do it. I would go broke before selling all that cabinetry or the “cement of the month.” I had to have a purpose - to add real value to dental practices.

Efficiency Training - What is it? Think boot camp but for the dental practice. It is the most comprehensive clinical training designed for dentists, by dentists. After an in-depth plan, we come to you. For two days, we will restructure your inventory, resupply and deployment systems. We will address the lab organization. We will simplify and standardize the area in your practice where the actual dentistry happens, ultimately implementing the tools you need to be most productive. We are an enthusiastic team of dental practice clinical trainers who have played the game and have decades of total clinical experience. We are efficiency experts. We are not dentists, but we work for one of the best, who consistently ranks among the top 1% in production per hour. 

We don’t stop there. Think about it. If you complete a boot camp workout in seven days, you need to practice the skills learned and maintain them - or bad habits will start to show their faces again. Continuous Improvement is a key principle of the systems implemented by Efficiency Training. We offer a one-day, onsite training where we will assess and enhance the systems installed during training. We examine what’s really working and make it even better - and address any new bottlenecks that may have popped up after we set the stage for extreme efficiency and productivity. 

The most critical element of any system are the people who make it happen. Reinvigorate Training is a one-day onsite staff focused session where we will build custom tools to keep your clinical teams engaged, motivated and accountable. Our Heart Charts ™ are a game-changer.
