Overview:
Course Description: According to research from the University of Iowa, ‘by 2020 the sheer-volume of medical knowledge will double every 73 days.” Treating our patients as a whole versus focusing on a singular diagnosis represents the future of healthcare delivery. Communication among professionals provides a richness of knowledge that creates a “dream team” for our patients. Collaborative efforts to obtain, share, and process information contributes to consistent patient centered care. This course is designed to promote intra-office and inter-office communication to cultivate partnerships through all aspect of healthcare. An introduction and review of practice guidelines, customized referrals, and documentation will be explored. Reflection upon past “game changers” in dentistry allows us to look forward and recognize future inter-disciplinary opportunities in healthcare. Participants will engage in a lively discussion on topics related to: elevating communication skills, standardizing office protocols and tailoring documentation. The time is now to “bridge the gap” in healthcare through adaptation, customization and collaboration. Course Objectives • Identify current optimal care practices and expand upon opportunities. • Review medical emergency protocols. • Distinguish between inter-office communication and intra-office communication • Learn to apply new protocols for: collaboration, referrals, guidelines, and documentation. • Implement suggestions for seamless communication that will enrich your team environment. • Identify prospective inter-disciplinary opportunities.
