Description: Here’s the bottom line – clients/patients, whatever you call them in your agency, have a choice. They can choose your agency…or not. They can dismiss your services…or not. They can give your agency a “good grade”…or not. The can indicate their satisfaction to surveyors and/or payors…or not. And, there are studies that have examined the impact of “happiness” on a person’s physical and emotional well-being. Join me as we look at the many facets of customer satisfaction and your important role. Let’s make it a “Happy New Year” for our patients and ourselves.

Convenience: Enjoy the convenience and cost-efficiency of a telephone workshop. There is no travel time involved and no limit to the number of attendees from your agency who may participate at your site through one phone line. All you need to participate is a speaker telephone and a room large enough for your staff. It is a controlled, radio-like environment where you will gather your staff, dial an 800 number, state your verbal password, and you’re connected. You will also be able to participate in a Q&A portion. The teleconference will take place from 3:00 to 4:00 p.m. EST., 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. CST.
CD recordings are available for purchase. Please allow 2 weeks following the live presentation to receive the CD by mail.
