Managing Staff and Organizations in Support of Practice Excellence

Whether you have one part-time clinical or administrative staff member, or you are an owner of a large inter-disciplinary group, you are an employer. Having employees (or independent contractors) adds complexity and responsibility. This webinar focuses on addressing these demands to promote excellence in service delivery via employment contracts, policies and procedures, and mentoring to promote staff development. During this presentation you will learn the following:

• Your practice as an employer.
• Are you a "family"?—The importance of contracts, policies and procedures.
• Integrating your vision into management decisions.
• Hiring staff (challenges, 1099 or W-2, compensation and benefits).
