As we move back into your practice and talk about being an \u201caware team member,\u201d there are really so many places we can go with this. \u00a0I want to keep this week\u2019s Huddle straightforward and give you an opportunity to talk amongst each other about areas you know you could be more present and aware. \u00a0This list should also include any training or clarity you need in order to do so.<\/p>\n

First things first, being an aware team member is really the secret to being collaborative with each other. \u00a0This gives you the ability to think beyond just yourself and what you are doing by understanding that every action you do or patient you see impacts everyone else in the practice.<\/p>\n

Whether this is setting proper expectations on the phone or avoiding an insurance discussion in the back. \u00a0Everything you do (or don\u2019t do) serves as a domino falling into your other team members and swaying the outcome of a patient visit.<\/p>\n

Clear, timely and accurate chart notes come to mind. \u00a0As well as information on new patients being carried throughout the experience. \u00a0Of course, doing effective triangles and not just tossing patients back and forth to the next person in line.<\/p>\n

Imagine a relay race where you are gaining as much ground as possible and then passing the baton to your teammate. \u00a0It is everyone\u2019s responsibility to do their part in getting the patient to the finish line. \u00a0Even one slow runner (or a disastrous dropping of the baton), can secure a defeat.<\/p>\n

You get the point.<\/p>\n

That said, awareness is also about showing up on time, being prepared for your day, coming into the practice clear minded and being focused on the day\u2019s work at hand.<\/p>\n

Awareness is about being helpful when you have the chance and being supportive when a team member needs you.<\/p>\n

Being an aware team member is about empathy and understanding that sometimes someone else is unaware of their actions, attitude or even mistakes. \u00a0While that doesn\u2019t make it okay or displace responsibility from them, they might just need a nudge, a reminder, or a polite mention to think a little bit more before they act, talk, do, neglect, etc.<\/p>\n

How else would you describe a great team member that is aware? \u00a0What behaviors do you appreciate from your fellow team members that make for more successful days?<\/p>\n

The message here is to realize that the practice is bigger than any one person. \u00a0You are not tucked away in your own compartment operating independent of everyone else. \u00a0No matter how busy you are, understand everyone else is too.<\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re stuck on the phone with insurance all day or behind the desk checking in patients or in the mouth in the back, you are a link in the chain of success in your practice. \u00a0Without you doing what you do it won\u2019t work but the same goes for all the other links. \u00a0Your goal (other than being your best self), is to help make sure the links stay connected and everyone is holding up each other. \u00a0You must operate in unison and be focused on the practice mission every day, and that takes awareness over yourself and others.<\/p>\n

Make your list of awareness both individually and as a team. \u00a0This alone will elevate your ability to \u2018show up\u2019 with consistency and the energy to perform to your potential. \u00a0The result will be better patient experiences and more fulfilling days for your team.<\/p>\n\"\"<\/a>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
