Thursday, December 15th, 2011

While there’s a lot of joy and quality time spent with friends and family during the holidays, there’s no doubt the season is fraught with stress. Your already full and busy life kicks into high gear as you add entertaining, shopping, gift giving and holiday parties to your schedule.  In the medical field it’s also a time when there’s an increase in patient demands as winter illnesses settle in and patients hurry to use benefits before the end of the year.  It’s easy to see how workplace productivity decreases and stress increases from Thanksgiving to the New Year.

Did you know that there are over 7 million responses returned when you search Google for conflict resolution? It is even more surprising how sizzling this topic is within the medical field these days. More and more practice managers are commenting on how they are “dealing” with (and sometimes not dealing with) these unpleasant situations in the office.

E-Prescribing Tools For The Medical Practice Manager

Thursday, June 9th, 2011

Have you ever tried to complete a task without all the tools? My husband is quite the handyman and he always needs tools for the job.
