Dentessence. 1990 Winter;1(4):25-9.
There is no doubt that any improvement in practice efficiency should release valuable time for both the dentist and staff to enable them to look after patients. Computers are thus an obvious subject to include in Dentessence because they can improve efficiency. Yet so often all computers seem to do is increase work rather than decrease it. One practice that enthuses about their computer belongs to Robin Denville, who has found that when used correctly and backed up effectively a computer plays a significant role in helping the practice provide the kind of service that the patients want. So we asked Chrissie, Robin's wife and practice manager, to write this article as a first in what we hope will be an irregular series on the value of the computer in today's marketplace.
毫无疑问,实践效率的任何提高都应为牙医和工作人员腾出宝贵时间,使他们能够照顾患者。因此,计算机显然是Dentessence中应涵盖的主题,因为它们可以提高效率。然而,计算机似乎常常只会增加工作量,而不是减少工作量。罗宾·丹维尔(Robin Denville)的诊所热衷于使用计算机,他发现,当正确使用并有效备份时,计算机在帮助诊所提供患者所需的服务方面发挥着重要作用。所以我们请罗宾的妻子兼诊所经理克丽西(Chrissie)撰写了这篇文章,这是我们希望会不定期推出的关于计算机在当今市场价值系列文章的第一篇。
