CONTINUING EDUCATION

Continually educating staff members in any medical practice is vital to optimum patient care.  Our entire staff remains well-informed in all aspects of the eye care profession.  Weekly staff meetings are held and conferences throughout the United States are attended several times each year.   Staff members enroll in internet webinars and routinely increase their knowledge of the current trends in eye care through reading and research.  

This week, the education portion of our staff meeting took staff members on a "Photo Scavenger Hunt" throughout our office.  Our staff members were divided into teams of two with different departments represented on each team.  each team was given an envelope containing 40 photos of items from throughout the office which were to identified and located...VERY CLOSE photos!  The photos were taken with a digital camera, loaded into photo software on the computer and cropped to a very small portion of the image.  The photos were enlarged.  Each team's envelope contained the same 40 photos and the team which completed the task with the most accuracy would be crowned the most detail-oriented pair in our practice.  

Our doctors taught our interns, our technicians learned from our opticians, and the doctors now know

where more things are located in the front office. We laughed together and learned from one another.
