What is inside
Taken from the kit’s own Start Here guide, so what you see here is what you open after checkout.
How to use it
When someone is out, a dental chair or the front desk can go uncovered, and patients feel it that same day. This workbook brings a no-fault attendance point system and daily coverage planning together for a small dental practice. Set your point values, rolling window, and discipline thresholds once on the Point Policy tab. As you log each occurrence, the tracker assigns its point value, removes those points when they expire, and shows each employee's active points and current discipline stage. Three planning tabs map coverage for every chair and the front desk, establish time off and shift swap rules, and provide a same-day call-out procedure. It is a one time purchase that you can set up in an afternoon and use to manage attendance and coverage.
