In a Rut? 5 New Strategies for Your Physician Outreach
The Story
Physician outreach is critical to your recruitment efforts, but your routine may need a refresh to yield better results. Consider new strategies to gain traction, such as using DocMails to invite physicians to an upcoming conference you’ll be attending, targeting residency program directors, and leveraging the network of your existing team.
     
What You Should Know
Even if you don’t have an immediate need for physicians, building your pipeline now can be helpful for addressing future needs. Creative outreach strategies such as those listed above, as well as routine follow-ups, can help you stay in contact with candidates. With these comprehensive approaches, your open positions may be less likely to remain unfilled for very long.

Technology That Can Help Keep Healthcare Staff Safe
The Story
In recent years, attacks against healthcare workers have increased on a global scale. To combat violence against healthcare, many facilities are implementing safety and security technology. Popular options include panic buttons, video surveillance, access control devices, body cameras, and mass notification systems.
     
What You Should Know
In the midst of increasing attacks against healthcare, implementing security technology can illustrate your dedication to keeping your staff safe. Healthcare workers are often alone with patients, so providing panic buttons that hasten the arrival of security can provide peace of mind across a variety of settings. These measures may give hospitals a competitive edge over other employers, though it’s possible they may eventually become standard tools required under organizations’ violence prevention policies.

Do your candidate communications send the right message?
The Story
Strong communication with candidates is important to minimizing back-and-forth exchanges and eliminating the risk of misunderstandings. Start by finding out your candidate’s preferred communication method, then reach out in a way that’s clear and concise. Avoid assumptions and listen carefully when your candidate responds or asks questions.
     
What You Should Know
Taking the time to structure your communications with candidates can save hassle down the road caused by misunderstandings. Whether it’s a letter of intent or job offer, be sure to communicate clearly and concisely. Review for any errors and consider what follow-up questions your candidate may have. With a thoughtful approach, you can promote smoother communication for both parties.

Leadership Reflections
     
Relationships
On a recent trip to the AmSECT Conference, it was fascinating to watch our team reunite after not being together for over two years. While there are many things to do in the Phoenix area, what they wanted to do most was spend time together. As I reflect back on this, I am reminded that being face to face can have such a significant impact on building relationships.

As leaders, arranging periodic in-person gatherings helps you keep everyone in the loop, reduces misunderstandings, facilitates more efficient communication, boosts engagement, builds trust, and allows you to provide more clarity around priorities.

CT Assist identifies relationships as one of our core values. One of the ways we prioritize relationship building with our providers and clients is visiting in person. Travel restrictions limited these opportunities over the past two years, and we’re grateful to be able to start doing this again. If you have interest in an in-person visit to discuss partnership opportunities, please reach out!
