Needing some advice as a new owner
I recently had my full time hygienist let me know she was going to be separating from her husband and moving to a different city. Obviously I was panicking, but luckily I found a new full time hygienist that started today.
A few weeks go by and the hygienist now lets me know she is not moving, tells me what days she wants to work, and is asking for a raise as she cut her hours (all after I have hired this new full time hygienist).
She does have many patients request her but at this point, I will be over staffed and I’m not exactly sure how to handle this. She has been with the office for a long time and I’m not sure how patients are going to react.
Just looking for some advice on how you would handle this as an owner in my position.
Thank you!
