Being laid off is a scary thing. Times like these show that it can happen to any of us, at any time, with no warning. While it’s an unknown situation for all of us, we need to take the initiative to remind our dentists and bosses we can do so much more than just clean teeth! Here are some examples of what you can do when cleaning teeth is not an option:
Things to do when you're not seeing patients
1. Sharpen instruments
2. Clean and organize charts
3. Inventory supplies
4. Community service - create goodie bags for students or homeless
5. Team bonding exercises
6. Throw out old items and donate unnecessary things
7. Clean the lab and office
8. Office maintenance or renovation
9. Take online CE's
10. Run financial reports to execute a plan for future growth
11. OSHA training refresher - update things in the office to ensure OSHA compliance
12. Cross-train employees
Comment below things your office is doing to avoid layoffs!
