title: Giving your staff the proper perspective: the 25 basic truths.
abstract: In most medical practices, new employees delve into the specifics of their jobs without getting the lay of the land. They do not always know what kind of attitude, conduct, or perspective they will need to succeed in their new jobs. It is up to their new bosses to provide this insight. In this article, the author presents 25 basic "truths" every medical practice employee should know from the start. These truths could be added to a handbook for new employees. In addition, more seasoned staff members could read them; they are in an excellent position to contribute additional "truths" of their own that are specific to the practice and specialty.
