Episode 229 | Optimizing Your Team: Part-Time and Full-Time Therapist Considerations

The Group Practice Exchange

Have you been considering how you can effectively employ part-time and full-time clinicians in your practice?

In this episode, I delve into the benefits and challenges of hiring part-time and full-time clinicians. I share my personal experience of starting my practice with part-time clinicians and how it has impacted work-life balance expectations. Join me to learn more about:

• The importance of considering factors such as workplace culture, income, benefits, burnout, and personal fulfillment when employing clinicians.

• The shift in work-life balance expectations due to COVID-19 and how it has influenced the trend of more people seeking part-time employment.

• The benefits of offering part-time options, such as attracting a wider pool of talent and providing flexibility for clinicians.

• The challenges of managing schedules and maintaining consistency in client care with part-time clinicians.

• The importance of maintaining transparency with staff about the impact of offering part-time options.

Employing part-time and full-time clinicians in your practice can bring both benefits and challenges. By carefully considering factors such as workplace culture and maintaining transparency with staff, you can create a balanced and fulfilling work environment for your clinicians.
