Comment on Dentists – be wary of social media by Andy Lane

This is the reason why practices should use a Facebook “page” for their business – patients can “recommend” and interact with these pages with impunity. It’s a great way to get news about the practice out to patients and subtly market to their contacts, but it’s not appropriate to befriend patients on the personal part of Facebook. Some practices clearly don’t understand the difference, but if you’re going to get involved in Social Media networking it’s essential to have proper advice from someone who does. Hopefully this would be the GDC’s advice too, but I’m not sure they have woken up to what’s going on in the “real” world.

Comment on Training is a waste of time by Debi Richens

This sounds like the dental group that I have just left!!! If you don’t treat your staff with thought & consideration, as well as giving them useful & efficient training, they will not develop into the team that you want or need.
You have to treat them with respect & loyalty to recoup that after the training.
There is an old fashioned saying that is absolutely true, ‘you have to give to receive!’.
