Facing the challenge: recruitment & retention of staff.
The economic slowdown has begun to ease the shortage of clinical staff. Programs in the accredited dental assisting and dental hygiene programs are fully subscribed. As women and men alike look for alternative careers, they are looking at dental hygiene and dental assisting for the first time. It is our responsibility as dental professionals to spread the word--dental careers are rewarding and fulfilling. Using an effective hiring strategy, we will be able to compete with the corporate world and recruit and retain competent staff.
