Abstract
Background:
Many dentists say that staff-related issues, not clinical dentistry, are the number one cause of stress in their offices.
Overview:
To help avoid staffing problems and the resultant stress, the author suggests that dentists take the time to identify their specific staffing needs and create job descriptions to prepare for interviewing potential staff members. She provides guidelines for the planning and interviewing processes.
Practice Implications:
Taking the time to hire the right staff members will help dentists create a productive environment that will benefit them, their staff members and their patients.
