Staff Retention & Burnout

If you're constantly retraining new hires or struggling to keep great team members, burnout is likely to blame.

But here's the truth: burnout doesn't start with your staff; it starts with your systems.

When workflows are unclear, feedback goes unheard, and recognition is rare, even your most reliable employees will start looking for the exit.



Beyond the emotional toll, high turnover drains your clinic financially. Each lost staff member can cost up to 50-75% of their annual salary in recruitment, onboarding, and lost productivity.

But more importantly, frequent turnover breaks the consistency your patients rely on, impacting both satisfaction and retention.



➀ Listen before you fix it.

Start with an honest staff survey. Ask what's working and what's not, then act on it.

➁ Recognize effort daily.

Small, public recognition moments during huddles can boost morale faster than bonuses.

➂ Clarify workflows.

Confusion creates stress. Audit your team's daily processes to identify where burnout begins. 

➃ Encourage growth.

Help staff see a future in your organization. Simple development plans go a long way.

➄ Use structured tools.

The Staff Retention & Burnout Prevention Toolkit gives you plug-and-play templates, from surveys and burnout checklists to recognition and career growth plans.

Burnout thrives in silence. When you make feedback and recognition part of your culture, engagement rises, and turnover falls.
