When to use the Retention Calendar
- Receptionists calling to confirm appointments should always have it up. If a client is already on the phone then it requires very little extra time to address the items on the Retention Calendar.
- Check-in is another great time to bring up any other pets due or missing information.
- In the exam room works if a doctor or technician wants to discuss the "other members of the family" as part of the visit. This can be one of the most effective uses of the Retention Calendar.
- Check out - If your hospital does room check out this would be a great time for your technicians to talk with the client about their other pet's healthcare needs.
- Work it ahead - It is always great to work the Retention Calendar ahead of time to be proactive.
