Staff turnover is a significant challenge for healthcare practices, particularly in regional areas. The high cost of replacing administrative and office staff, coupled with the disruption to clinic operations, can be overwhelming. Maintaining a stable and proficient workforce is pivotal to achieving sustained success. This blog explores the critical importance of staff continuity, the hidden costs associated with employee turnover, and how partnering with Allied Orbit can lead to substantial savings and long-term stability for your organisation.
Staff continuity refers to the seamless maintenance of a stable workforce within an organisation. It ensures that key roles are always filled with competent and experienced personnel, minimising disruptions to daily operations. Whether it's managing patient records, scheduling appointments, or handling billing, having a reliable administrative team is essential for delivering consistent service quality and achieving business objectives.
Employee turnover isn't just about replacing a person; it's about the ripple effects that follow. According to a report by the Australian Human Resources Institute (AHRI), the average cost to replace an employee in Australia can be as high as 75% to 150% of their annual salary. For instance, replacing a mid-level administrative employee with an annual salary of AUD $80,000 can cost an organisation between AUD $60,000 to AUD $120,000 in recruitment, training, and lost productivity.
High staff turnover in healthcare administration is not just a minor inconvenience; it’s a costly problem that can significantly impact your practice’s bottom line.
Beyond the financial implications, high staff turnover disrupts clinic operations and negatively affects efficiency. Frequent staff changes can lead to inconsistencies in administrative processes, longer wait times for patients, and a decline in overall clinic performance. A stable administrative workforce is crucial for maintaining high standards of operation and ensuring that patients receive consistent, quality service.
