"Introducing Cost Effective Team Training Designed Specifically for Today's Medical Group Practices"

"Triangle Team Training is the cost effective way to create a more productive and cohesive staff, improve your office environment, lower the risk of Malpractice Claims, and increase your free time and profitability"

   

Dear Physician,

Do you want to spend more time on the practice of medicine?
Do you want more time for your personal life?

Triangle Team Training is the cost effective way to have a more productive and cohesive staff, a more pleasant office environment, and greater profitability - freeing you to practice medicine, spend time with family, or pursue personal interests outside of work.

Conflict resolution is one of the most difficult areas of staff interactions. How many times have you been pulled into conflicts between staff members? How much does this conflict affect your bottom line? The good news is ...

Triangle Team Training teaches your staff how to handle conflicts more quickly and productively, without involving you! You already know how stressful and time consuming staff conflicts can be to your practice. But …

When your staff spends more time and energy following your direction your bottom line improves. Rapid conflict resolution keeps your practice on track. So…

Your work life improves and you spend more time doing what you want to do.

Improved communication skills are one of the many valuable benefits of Triangle Team Training. With improved communication your staff will work better together and get things done faster. You'll avoid costly mistakes due to poor communication. Think of how nice it will be to get fewer call backs from patients wanting to clarify poorly communicated instructions. And ...

When your staff communicates better, you'll get far fewer complaints from colleagues, patients, and vendors. Everyone will feel they're getting better service ... because they will be.

You're already aware of the very important connection between communication problems and increased risk of a malpractice claim. Improved communications between staff and patients is an important step toward reducing your risk of malpractice claims. I'm sure you'll agree, anything that reduces the risk of malpractice claims is worth consideration.

Now, lowering costs is a major concern for all health care practices. But consider that team training more than pays for itself in a number of cost savings ways,
like …

  • Improves Staff Retention
  • Increases Productivity
  • Improves Patient Satisfaction
... just to name a few.

When you look at the big picture, team training is really an investment, not an expense.

Contact me today to schedule a free, no obligation consultation on how Triangle Team Training can help your office run more smoothly and efficiently. My goal is to improve your bottom line and working environment so you have more time and fewer worries.

"Efficient Teams Earn You Time & Money"

How Does Your Team Rate?


In the last 30 days ...

  1. Has any of your staff been short with a patient?
  2. Has any of your staff been short with a fellow staffer?
  3. Has a patient asked you to explain a staffer's instructions?
  4. Have you had to resolve a dispute between staff members?
  5. Have you felt frustrated that your practice isn't all it could be?

If you answered YES to any of these then your team could probably benefit from Triangle Team Training. Most teams can!

Human nature being what it is, it's natural for team members to focus on themselves. Each person protects their own "turf." From time to time border disputes break out and you're called in to be a peacekeeper. When this happens there are two losers ... you and your patients. That's where ....

Triangle Team Training makes a difference.
Efficient teams rarely evolve on their own. They are the result of proper training. While good leadership is important, the best teams operate with little intervention. They share common goals and go out of their way to make sure the team performs at its best. This starts to happen when ...

Your Staff Finally Gets Along

Triangle Team Training teaches conflict resolution so your staff resolves conflicts faster. The working environment improves for everyone - staff, physicians, and patients alike.

Best of All… You're called on less often to settle staff conflicts!

Morale improves when staff members are more positive toward one another. They work better together and enjoy their jobs more. Research has continually shown that a positive work environment is rated as a significant factor in employee satisfaction and retention.


Triangle Team Training is Cost Effective

An entire year of Team Building services can cost less than replacing just one principal staff member.

And you already know ...
Less staff turnover = Better bottom line

Improve YOUR Team's Performance

"Improved Communications can be Absolutely Invaluable
to the Life of Your Practice"

Triangle Team Training teaches communications skills.

The importance of effective and accurate communications in a medical practice cannot be overestimated.

Better Communications mean…

  • More efficient staff
  • Fewer costly mistakes due to poor communications
  • Less time spent redoing tasks because of confusing directions
  • Fewer calls from patients wanting to clarify poorly communicated instructions

Won't it be nice to finally begin to hear positive comments from patients and colleagues about your office and staff? When patients get treated right they proudly refer their friends. They're loyal ... but I'll touch more on loyalty in just a moment.

Now, consider how this relates to renewing Managed Care Contracts.

You're already aware that after the contract has been signed, service is king in the eyes of the Managed Care Company. Research has consistently documented that high performing teams receive higher customer service ratings. Improved customer service helps you maintain your managed care contracts. As an additional bonus…

Because your satisfied patients will tell their friends about your great customer service, you may even get more self-pay patients.

On a More Serious Note ...

You're no doubt acutely aware of the strong relationship between communication difficulties and a patient's decision to file a Malpractice Claim against their physician.

  Why Do Patients Sue?
"Bad outcomes and errors in care are obvious factors, but some of the available evidence implicates deficient communication."
This conclusion reported in…
Albert W. Wu, MD, MPH, Annals of lnternal Medicine,
21 December 1999, Volume 131, Number 12: 970-972

If you want to read more about the documented relationship between communication difficulties and a patient's decision to file a Malpractice Claim simply do a Medline search to find numerous recent studies on the subject in such journals as…

  • JAMA
  • Annals of lnternal Medicine
  • Journal of Family Practice
  • American Journal of Law & Medicine
  • Northwest University Law Review…

Well, you get the picture. You will be inundated with studies highlighting the clear connection between poor communication and Malpractice Claims.

In today's market
You simply cannot afford the cost of a poorly communicating team.

No Time For "Cookie Cutter" Approaches

A Range of Options To Fit Your Practice

Keeping operating expenses in check is paramount in any medical practice. The wide menu of options available for Team Training means you never commit for unnecessary services. You're always in control of the costs because there are no contracts to sign.

You control costs through…

  1. Length of training sessions
  2. Frequency of training sessions

Your practice may benefit most from monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, annual, or a PRN Team Training schedule. You decide on the level of service right for your practice. This way you tailor the service to meet your needs. And to make all this especially easy on you ...

Training sessions can be scheduled after hours or during your administrative time or whenever is convenient for you. I make it easy for you to ...

Create A Winning Team

Now, as promised, a little more on loyalty ...

Everyone is proud to be on a winning team.
You don't have to look at research to understand how intensely loyal people can be to "their team". Just think about how loyal sports fans are to their team. If you want a loyal staff, get them working as a Team - Everyone committed to the group effort. When your staff feel they're part of a team, they naturally work to help the team perform well. And don't forget, it's natural for staff members to be more loyal and supportive of a Team Leader than a boss.

"Individual commitment to a group effort, that is what makes a team work,
a company work, a society work, a civilization work."
-- Vince Lombardi        

Triangle Team Training has as its basic foundation the concept of Team
... with you as the Team Leader!

Think about how valuable staff support and loyalty are to the success of your practice and I think you'll agree ...
