You must increase the level of customer service in your medical practice, but where to start?
In the past, Five-Star Service was perhaps one of the most underestimated concepts in the healthcare industry. Not anymore. Five-Star customer service is something we all demand in our everyday lives-in our homes, businesses, and personal lives-and now it is becoming one of the cornerstones of healthcare delivery.
But in your healthcare practice, you can launch your own "Operation Five-Star" with this new book, by best-selling authors James Saxton and Maggie Finkelstein. Combining the "why should we focus on this?" with the commonsense "how to do it," you'll find real-world cases that show how practices and hospitals have succeeded with Operation Five-Star. The book provides practical information and tools to build service excellence in the health care setting, and simultaneously help healthcare providers to mitigate liability risk.
Must read sections include post-adverse event communication and disclosure, how to appreciate cultural differences in your patientpopulation, and how to engage staff in enhancing internal and external Five-Star service, consistently and pervasively.
