Dentist-staff interpersonal relationships.

The growing demand for dental services has resulted in an expanded utilization of auxiliary personnel in an effort to increase productivity. Enlarged dental teams which have evolved from this effort have also magnified the potential for interpersonal conflicts in the office. Although such conflicts are sometimes unavoidable, they can be reduced through effective preventive management. Careful selection of personnel, well designed training programs, and attention to those factors which assist retention of qualified staff members are important in this process. Finally, the entire team must have common goals and work in a coordinated fashion to achieve ultimate success. The dentist of today must possess the skills of an effective manager as well as those of a competent clinician.

Administrative structure of an accredited hospital.

The administrative structure of an accredited hospital is defined by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Hospitals. It includes a governing board that represents the community, an executive committee that is responsible for patient care activities and is supported by standing committees, and a hospital administrative unit consisting of a chief administrator and numerous assistants. Policy recommendations are received by the governing board from the executive committee and must be approved by the board. Problems are resolved through a joint conference committee made up of representation from the executive committee and the board, as well as participation by hospital administrators. Finally, the medical staff is divided into departments that assume responsibility for patient care within their disciplines, as well as determine the awarding of credentials to applicants for hospital privileges.
