In today’s competitive job market, attracting and keeping top talent has never been more challenging. As the demand for patient care continues to rise, Heartland Dental supported practices are staying ahead by leveraging innovative staffing solutions that help meet these growing needs, maintain high service standards, and benefit team members.
Earlier this year, Heartland Dental introduced Daily Pay, a benefit that allows team members to access their earned wages whenever they need them—without waiting for the next pay cycle. This flexibility has been a game-changer for many team members, improving employee satisfaction and financial stability.
Building on this commitment to flexibility and support, Heartland Dental launched HDflex, a staffing solution that allows hygienists and dental assistants to pick up shifts at other Heartland Dental supported offices when their schedules permit. This both provides supported doctors with access to a trusted, highly skilled talent pool familiar with the systems, technologies, and best practices of a Heartland Dental supported office and offers team members the opportunity to pick up additional shifts, earn overtime, and maintain their guaranteed hourly rate.
Lori Hall, CDA, LDH, Vice President of Clinical Operations, explains, “Our goal with HDflex is to provide our hygienists and DAs options that make it easier to manage their time and maximize their pay while giving our supported practices access to a consistent, highly skilled talent pool.”
Daily Pay and HDflex are representative of the evolving external environment and the opportunity to provide unique solutions to our supported practices. Not only do these innovations provide greater flexibility for team members, but they also help supported practices maintain high-quality patient care by ensuring offices are always fully staffed. It's truly a win-win.
