A family affair
Featured Products Promotional FeaturesPosted by: Dental Design 2nd June 2021
As we all spend such a huge proportion of our lives at work, it’s important to love what we do and the people we are with every day. When this happens, work becomes a joy and we tend to create a more relaxed atmosphere in which we can really be the very best version of ourselves.
Being part of a work family is about having access to and providing support for colleagues when they need it, lending an ear or asking for a hand whenever needed. To create such an environment, it’s crucial that professionals share similar ethics and values when it comes to clinical dentistry and patient care. These must also be prioritised by the dental provider so that the products, tools and technologies required to deliver exceptional treatment are made available. This is something that we care more about at Colosseum Dental UK.
However, you don’t have to just take our word for it. Dr Jeissica Pareshkumar, associate dentist at Charlton Dental Clinic in London, discusses why she feels like she is part of the family:
“I have been working in this clinic for about 9 years now. Even though I had very little to complain about with the previous owners, I saw lots of positive changes when Colosseum took over. It was a very smooth transition and Colosseum made us feel like our jobs would be safe and that our roles would continue to be of value.
“One of the main benefits of working for Colosseum is that it’s like a big family – we get to know senior management and they know us by name as well. As a dentist, I have also been offered continuous training and guidance on how to further develop my skills. For example, most recently, I have completed a ClearCorrect training course provided by Colosseum, allowing me to provide GDP orthodontics. There is also a range of training available on everything from rotatory endodontics to implantology. This helps us as clinicians to progress with our knowledge and improve our earning potential.
“Throughout this pandemic, our clinical, management and leadership teams have been exceptional. They have kept us in the loop of the latest NHS guidelines and payment strategies. They also honoured all payments of all staff and made zero redundancies.
“There is always help available with NHS guidelines and DAF reports, enabling us to improve our ways of providing excellent care. The clinical support is always there. The clinical team are approachable and will always find answers to any clinical query we may have to guide us to the best possible outcome for our patients.
“Colosseum is very much patient-led, listening to patients’ feedback to continually improve for them. One example of putting patients first is that the clinic opens later to make sure we can provide dental care to all our patients.
“With regards to facilities, my surgery has a brand-new chair and our clinic is kept looking fresh and brand new with constant updates. In terms of products, we have access to everything we require. Any time we have needed extra equipment like endodontic files or apex locators, these have been provided immediately. We were also recently given the opportunity to work with a 3Shape intraoral scanner, which we now use regularly for orthodontics and for more dynamic treatment planning with patients.
“I do feel looked after at Colosseum. I feel like the management and leadership teams work hard behind the scenes to ensure we are able to work at our best in clinic. Our area manager calls us individually to check in on our well-being and prior to the pandemic would visit us regularly too. In addition, our practice manager’s office is always open for us to offload after a tiring day or to just have a laugh.
“I am truly blessed to be part of such an amazing team. We are a family and we look after one another.”
