Temp RDH Request Form
This form is only used for temp requests greater than 48 hours. For needs less than 48 hours; please contact your RM directly via phone/text.
Please complete this form to ensure we are tracking all temp hygiene requests accordingly. Temp requests will go to Regional Manager and Alexis Hall, RDH scheduler for review and approval. This is a great tool/exercise to also work through the need of the request before it is submitted.
Why is this critical? Most and foremost, we need to ensure we are providing quality patient care to our existing and new patients. Sometimes with outside agency temps they don't understand the Riccobene way, treatment planning philosophy to provide an outstanding experience for our patients.
Where can you help as Office Managers? Before requesting temp hygienists, are we able:
- engage our existing hygienists to see more patients? incentivize them with extra pay.
- if we have an existing hygienist that is regularly scheduled off on a certain workday to help pick up a shift (incentivize them with extra pay).
- if it is a temp RDH that we are using, how are we maximizing their schedules? Are they replacing the current APD (Average Production per day) to cover their temp cost?
Questions
- Should you have any questions, please reach out directly to your Regional Manager or Alexis Hall.
