Podcast: H1N1 prep

Are you ready for flu season?

Many practices can likely expect an influx of patients either calling with concerns about the H1N1 virus or showing up for appointments with flu symptoms. Then there’s the possibility of staff getting ill, further taxing the practice’s day-to-day operations.

So now’s the time to prepare. Is your staff cross-trained to handle all the duties? Do you have a scheduling plan to handle the extra appointments?

For this month’s podcast, I spoke with consultant Nick Fabrizio about what practices should be doing to prepare for flu season. Have a listen, and tell us here what you are doing to get ready.
