PT Practice Success

In this podcast, The Fundamentals of Practice Management we will cover the following:

• Introduction to Practice Management Challenges: Shaun Kirk addresses the common administrative challenges faced by practice managers in busy healthcare settings, using a Texas practice as a case study.
• Staffing and Time Management: Discusses issues with staff shortages and the critical need for effective time management among clinic directors who are overwhelmed with daily tasks.
• Strategic Planning: Emphasizes the importance of planning ahead to prevent management by crisis, encouraging proactive rather than reactive management styles.
• Delegation and Staff Empowerment: Highlights the necessity of delegating tasks and empowering staff to handle problems independently to enhance operational efficiency.
• Management Routines: Shaun suggests establishing consistent management routines that drive the practice forward, reducing dependency on the practice owner for problem-solving.
• Utilizing Administrative Windows: Offers strategies for maximizing limited admin times, such as planning sessions and short-term goal setting to improve practice outcomes.
• Building a Self-Sustaining Team: Advocates for training and development that enable staff to manage their own areas effectively, thereby reducing the burden on practice owners.
• Tools for Success: Provides practical tips on creating management dashboards and using key performance indicators (KPIs) to track and improve practice performance.

In this podcast, I will share many successful actions to knock down walls, to help you build your MD referrals and relationships.

I am definitely not a fan of having a PT practice owner knock on doors, but I'm a huge fan of training up a staff member to do this for you.

Have a pen ready.

Every client I am working with currently needs staff.

It is good that they are growing but really annoying how much challenge some are having at finding qualified applicants.

Since the options are limited,

...it's VITAL that we know how to effectively interview in such a way

...that gets the applicant humping your leg for the opportunity to work with you.

Let's go over how to hire the best of the best for your practice.

This podcast episode is from a presentation I delivered some time ago. 

There is a lot of information in this presentation that I believe may be helpful. 

Perhaps there is just ONE thing that you may change that could improve things for your practice and help you rise above simply surviving to actually thriving in private practice. (I think there is more than one thing to learn from this podcast)

Will you just Survive or can you Thrive?

I want to deliver this week's podcast on the impact of morale and lost income.

I am not just talking about your staff morale,

...but your patient's morale also,

...and the impact their negative attitude may have on your success,

...and what you could do about it.

What we'll delve into:

The often overlooked financial impact of low workplace morale.

After visiting over 300 clinics, I have a lot to share about how a positive environment impacts your practice's financial health.

I will cover practical steps to recognize and address poor morale before it affects the bottom line.

Some experiences from businesses – perhaps stories you can relate to, and what they did to turn things around.

Looking forward to connecting with you all!

I hope you enjoy it!

If you know me at all, you'd know I seldom delve into how to write progress notes.

So, this must be something different...

Well, it is...

I am a firm believer that little changes lead to massive success.

So, what I am going to cover in this podcast is how to implement ONE THING.

One thing that will provide your referring doctors precisely what they're looking for when receiving a progress note.

Okay, maybe it still doesn't sound sexy.

Perhaps it is so simple that you won't believe just how powerful this podcast could be.

A few months ago I delivered what I believe was a great presentation on having a winning mindset as a physical therapy practice owner.  

This was given to a Private Facebook Group that you're more than welcome to join. 

It isn't very long and you could play it faster,  if you believe I talk too slow. 

I feel like you'll find something in this podcast that can you use right away to improve your practice.

I was talking to a Clinic Director of one of my clients recently who felt VERY uncomfortable getting buy-in from his patients on the expected frequency and duration of care to effectively resolve their condition.

He was afraid of being too "salesy" or being too focused on the money than their condition. 

He asked me a ton of questions. 

"What do you do when..."

"What do you say if..."

"What if they have Blah, blah...

You know what I mean.
