A Holiday Plan Poem

Posted on November 22, 2017 by ASCENT: Administrator Support Community for ENT

Summer is over and autumn is done

The calendar pages are down to just one

The weather’s turned cold, there are Santas galore

On every corner (and inside every store)

Lights decorate houses – colored and clear

There’s no doubt about it: Christmas is near

Your staff is preparing to enjoy the season

Make sure your patients don’t resort to treason

After showing up at your office for care

Only to find that there’s nobody there

This can all be avoided and you will save face

By making sure there’s a holiday policy in place

Make it official – write it all down!

And then be sure to pass it around

Don’t keep it limited to your internal crew

Let all your patients know about it, too

Step one’s the most basic, so do it with verve

Decide which holidays you will observe

Next, you’ll need to address compensation

And whether employees can tack on vacation

Double time, triple time, time and a half

Come up with a plan for the entire staff

Don’t forget decorations and holiday greetings

Inform the whole staff in office-wide meetings

Whether you’re sticking to secular strictly

Let everyone have input; this one is tricky!

There’s one final topic you’ll need to address

When patients give gifts should you acquiesce?

Once this is decided, your plan is all done

Happy holidays! May your celebration be fun.
