Unfortunately, this had to happen. You can’t let the negative vibes in the office continue like that. The fact they would ignore your requests to handle tasks is a problem.

The longer a bad hire stays on the more damage they can cause. I know you inherited them from the previous owner, but, they were still bad hires.

Another issue at play is the patients. They should always be top concern in any practice.

As long as you have a good manager and good processes you can rebuild your staff. I’d look at your office processes, and definitely build a good strong application, interview hiring and training process. Hire slow…fire fast.

Don’t skip steps in hiring out of need for staff…it will cause problems later.

Make sure your manager is involved in the hiring as well.

Sorry. Patriot is just payroll software.

It’s best to stick with quickbooks or use something like Patriot. We have employees scattered about in multiple states. It is a lot to keep up with. I suggest hiring a payroll manager for your business to help.

EORs and PEOs get pricey. The only benefit with Employer of Record is they do file with their tax id and you pay a bill. Technically, it makes your employees their employees. My company has used EORs. We found, cheaper and more efficient to manage it ourselves.

You could also work with ADP, or another payroll company that’s more full service.

Patriot is great

Offer market days where vendors pay you to set up booths to sell their stuff. That way you can have food vendors too. Some might just hang banners to advertise. It’s all about making money from the space. Y’all could make cute tshirts and hats and sell stuff too.

First, are you exercising, eating right and taking vitamins? I know that’s seems so basic to ask…but it’s important.

Next, do you have a team you can depend on to help with the businesses?

Besides work what else is going on in your life. ? Have you ever worked with a coach? They might be able to help you find some balance. It made a difference for me, life and business coaching.

I go through phases with my businesses.

Having my dependable team makes a big difference. I have parts of the businesses that I enjoy so I focus on that and they manage the rest.
