E-mail message this week .. bits and pieces Were you ever in a position where decisions were made with only bits and pieces of information? .. I have. Ever made financial decisions with just bits and pieces of data? .. I have. Doctor .. are you providing within your patient¼s initial and subsequent visits only bits and pieces of information about the value of chiropractic care? Are they making their Health and Wellness decisions based only on bits and pieces of the Big Picture? Do they understand the reality of structural wear and tear and the subluxation process? Are they aware of the health benefits and natural performance enhancing potential with chiropractic care for their family and friends? Are you finding patients discontinuing care because they never received the „rest of the story?¾ Our techno conscious society clamors for data .. we no longer will accept simple answers for tough decisions. A consumer conscious society demands a complete understanding of their problem and they need to visualize while you vocalize your findings. Rather than leaving your patients with a bit here and a piece there .. use what is readily available to tell them the whole Chiropractic and Health and Wellness story. A recent vendor and teacher at the Karl Parker Seminar was Dr. Joe Ventura. He has a posting in today¼s e-mail concerning his latest chiropractic educational tool .. a digital CD business card. He has spent considerable time and money these past years developing innovative products that help fill the patient educational void. Imagine your webpage with complete office and chiropractic information on a business card size CD that plays on a patient¼s PC. He also has a product called Posture Pro when used for screenings and patient evaluations will produce on paper and on a computer screen the „normal¾ and your patient¼s postural profile. Similar units are being developed by others .. one of which I viewed recently while taking post graduate credits at Life University. Their sports division has worked to enhance the performance of professional athletes. I¼m sure there are others out there as well. Possibly you use a SEMG .. a muscle testing device .. a temperature gradient unit .. a SAM station or x-ray visualization to render the criteria for care and review the same with the patient. Possibly you use neuropatholators .. wall charts .. videos .. computer graphics .. patient orientation classes or knee to knee discussions to get your point across and create awareness for the patient to make the proper decisions. Whatever you use .. be sure to have that safety net built in providing each patient the entire message so they leave with an understanding of their role as well as yours. Next time you attend a chiropractic state association convention or seminar spend some extra time amongst the vendors. Besides the fact that they pay for their booth and hope you spend all your time with them .. they actually have innovative products that will either enhance your diagnostic and technical skills .. assist with patient education .. market your office within your community or assist with personal finances and development .. all in the name of putting those bits and pieces together.
