Operating without established Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and relying on an inexperienced office manager, the practice faced significant financial setbacks due to aged and uncollectible receivables, rampant staff turnover, and operational inefficiencies.
Upon discovering My Dental SOP, they found the framework of existing SOPs aligned with their practice needs. They didn't need to make extensive alterations to existing processes. Its automated training modules significantly reduced the burden on existing staff, allowing them to learn without compromising production. My Dental SOP proved to be a transformative tool for the dental practice. By seamlessly integrating existing SOPs, streamlining training, and fostering a cohesive team environment, it addressed critical challenges and set the practice on a path of efficiency, stability, and growth.
Case Study: 27 location, multi-state DSO
A Dental Service Organization faced hurdles in onboarding and training staff across multiple locations due to a lack of standardized training materials. This resulted in disruptions, inefficiencies, and communication issues between sites. Manual training processes strained HR resources, causing inconsistencies in procedures and forgetfulness among team members.
Implementing My Dental SOP brought transformative changes. Automated training modules reduced HR workload, allowing focus on strategic goals. Uploading SOPs to a central platform improved accessibility and alignment among team members. Centralized communication channels notably boosted employee engagement.
The DSO's investment in a comprehensive platform for training automation, SOP accessibility, progress tracking, and centralized communication yielded significant dividends. This enhanced operational efficiency but fostered consistency.
Case Study: Opening a Second Location
A thriving pediatric dental practice with one location was preparing to open an additional location. While they appreciated the existing SOPs provided by our platform, the practice needed to add specialty modules. The platform is easy to use and they were able to seamlessly incorporate tailored additions to meet their specialized requirements. With the assistance of their consultant, they fine-tuned their SOPs.
One significant challenge the practice faced was frequent turnover due to the nature of the community, which has a significant number of military families. Relocations within this demographic often resulted in unavoidable employee turnover. As a consequence, it was crucial for the practice to develop an automated training plan capable of swiftly and seamlessly onboarding new team members, driven by the necessity to avoid burdening the existing staff with extensive onboarding responsibilities. By integrating their specialized content, refining SOPs, and implementing an automated training plan, this pediatric dental practice successfully addressed the challenges posed by its expansion and high turnover rates due to the transient nature of their community. The result was an efficient, evergreen training system that not only streamlined the onboarding process but also contributed to the overall proficiency and adaptability of the team across both. The practice was better equipped to handle turnover and ensure seamless operations even with frequent personnel changes.
