Summer vacation at last! In summer, many dental practices take a well-deserved break by closing for a while or at least reducing their consultation hours. However, before things get underway, there are a few important points to bear in mind so that both the owners and the practice team can go on vacation without any worries and avoid any unpleasant surprises after the break.
Thanks to careful preparation, there are no hectic moments on the last day. Instead, the anticipation of the vacation can be enjoyed together with the entire practice team in a relaxed and well-organized manner.
