Filling Vacancies With Dental Staffing Agencies In Vancouver

By Daphne Bowen


Regardless of age, people will always need to see a dentist on a regular basis. Because more people than ever are making appointments with dentists, providers likewise continue to experience employee shortages in their offices. Rather than take out an advertisement in the local newspaper or put an ad on the Internet for help, many of these offices will look to dental staffing agencies in Vancouver for new applicants. The candidates sent to providers seeking new employees can fill the shortages and help take care of patients.

Hygienist work is among the positions that are most in demand at any given time. Given the nature of the work, some people may be reluctant to consider this career for a long-term basis. However, they are important because a dentist looks to one of these specialists to clean a person's teeth, make sure that x-rays are ordered, and also keep the records for a patient updated with each appointment.

Another reason why such a shortage of this position exists is because these employees are assigned to one or two patients at a time. As providers take on more patients, more of these specialists will be required to fill the available positions. An agency that hires out candidates looking for such work can assist with keeping these jobs filled and clients cared for every day.

Receptionists also may have to undergo scrutiny to ensure that they are ready for the type of employment required by their possible employer. A receptionist will be expected to greet people as they come into the office and also answer phones at the same time. This individual also may answer letters and emails, update charts, make appointments, and otherwise take care of the front office.

An agency that has workers for this job can assist a dentist in keeping his or her practice running. They can give the candidate a typing test, ensure that this person has phone answering skills, and could fulfill other duties expected of him or her. Once the candidate passes the tests, this person may be sent over for the position.

An agency also has the ability to vet new dentists who have just graduated from college. Owners of established practices sometimes need new dentists to take on subordinate or partnership positions. Instead of making a visit to a British Columbia dentist college or trusting such a job to an online advertisement, they may instead look to a company that is qualified to recruit dentists for open positions at local practices.

Another reason that practitioners look to these companies to assist them in keeping positions filled centers on the ability to choose both full-time and part-time or temporary workers. Sometimes the positions are only open for a short time, especially during the busy time of the year such as when children prepare to go back to school. Other openings are available for longer periods of time and could even lead to permanent employment.

Dental offices in Vancouver sometimes need additional help keeping positions filled. Because they cannot be sure of the quality of applicants when they put an ad on the Internet or in the newspaper, practitioners in charge of hiring might instead prefer to partner with staffing agencies. An agency in this industry could send along qualified people to help care for patients.
