It’s a pain point across the country. Recruiting is a difficult and time-consuming process that is resulting in fewer appointments and lost revenue for your practice. And it’s happening at all levels — from dentists to hygienists to dental assistants.
So, what’s driving it? And could affiliating with a DSO and a supported practice help you become more competitive so you can attract and retain top talent?
Key factors affecting private practices when staffing:
- Higher salary and benefits expectations
- Burnout leading to a high turnover rate
- Competition from other practices
As an independent practice, affiliation can be an attractive choice that offers access to resources that may not have been available to you in the past, like centralized recruitment teams that can support your hiring process. Additionally, it can also mean competitive salaries and benefits for staff members.
If this is something you’ve considered, affiliating with Heartland Dental and a supported practice can be just the solution to give you the competitive edge you need. With dedicated recruiters that support by finding talent for you, they’ll recruit top matches and send them to your office for final interviews so you get the final say.
And to entice your favorite candidates, attractive opportunities that can sweeten the deal also exist. Programs like HDflex, that allows staff to increase their earning potential by picking up extra shifts as needed are also available.
