AUDIOCONFERENCE ON TAPE, CD OR AUDIO ARCHIVE
presented on June 22, 2007
When it came time to hire a new therapist, I wasn’t specific enough about what our needs and expectations were from staff, and after just a few short weeks it was evident that this therapist was not right for our clinic. We spent thousands of dollars in legal fees to get us out of our contract with the therapist and months more to find someone that was a “good fit” for our clinic.

Have you wondered what you should do to safeguard yourself against a similar scenario? What should you do when looking for good candidates? And how do you make sure they stay?
Recruiting is all about finding the right person for the right job. But, enticing new therapists to join your clinic is ever trickier. Therapists know the job market is tight—and they are asking for more money and more expansive benefits. Retention is also important—once you've found the right person you want to give them incentive to stay. Your facility needs an effective strategy in place so you can find and keep the right therapists without breaking the bank.
Listen to this 90-minute audioconference (including a 30-minute question and answer session) and learn how to implement effective recruiting strategies at your facility. Our experts present strategies for recruiting therapy staff locally and internationally within your budget. You’ll benefit from the identification of appropriate resources to help your recruiting efforts as well as tips to improve overall retention.
