They scrape, polish, screen, and so much more — and this week we’re saying “thanks!” It’s Dental Hygienist Appreciation Week, and it’s a perfect opportunity to show how much you care for some of your team’s most valuable members.
Many of the world’s most beloved companies have something in common: a reputation for taking great care of their employees. People like to support businesses that respect and value the contributions of each of their team members.
With social media, the ability to share your gratitude for your team online has multiplied the brand-building benefits. For dentists, it not only grows practice unity, it tells patients and fans that you’re dedicated to being personal, considerate, and making sure everyone who walks in your door has a great experience.
To help you make team appreciation a bigger part of your practice culture, we’re proud to introduce this pack of free materials for Dental Hygienist Appreciation Week, April 8-14! Click the link below to download images to caption and post to your social media accounts, and printable Social Signs to hold in photos with your all-star hygienists.
This type of social media content gives potential patients a glimpse at your practice culture, and existing patients a chance to share what they love about your team. It would be ideal to put even $5 into promoting these posts on Facebook to help them reach a wider audience!
