More Kids Need You. The Right System Makes it Possible.
You have an amazing speech therapy team.
They’re happy.
They’re productive.
And they’re good at what they do.
But here’s the thing…
There are more kids out there that need your help.
No matter how big you’ve grown your clinic or therapy practice, I guarantee there are still kids in your community who need your services.
They either don’t know you exist…
Are waiting on the wait list…
Or they can’t yet access your services (for whatever reason).
Growing your Clinic or Practice Helps More Kids AND More SLPs
As people who tend to be helpers, we sometimes shy away from “going big” in our businesses because if feels self-serving. Or like we’re being greedy.
But I promise you that’s not the case.
By taking your team to the next level, you can help more clients and provide steady income and work for more staff members.
Your Team is Great, but they Could be Even Better….with the Right System
So what can we do to maximize your business growth and set your business up for massive success?
How can we make your “great” team a powerhouse?
With a system.
When you systematize your therapy processes and provide your SLPs and SLPAs with effective therapy tools, you allow them to see more clients and make faster progress in less time.
And systems aren’t just for new SLPs either.
A good therapy system takes stress off of established SLPs as well and turns “good progress” into “phenomenal results”.
And what happens when your whole team is getting phenomenal results?
More clients get seen.
More referrals come your way.
And you can create more jobs for other SLPs and SLPAs to keep the growth going.
3 Kinds of Systems to Get Massive Growth in your Therapy Practice
What kinds of systems are we talking about? Let me show you.
Your team needs systems for the following three areas:
- Assessments and Therapy Planning:
- The Therapy Itself
- Admin Tasks and Paperwork
How to Create Systems for Assessments and Therapy Planning
When your team has a standardized method for onboarding new clients, everything goes more smoothly.
Screening checklists and progress monitoring tools like the ones in our SLK Team Program below can help streamline this system so that you can quickly get new clients on board and ready for therapy. No more waiting months for an eval.
How to Create Systems for Speech Therapy Sessions
Once you know what they’re in for (in your clinic that is), then a good therapy system can be implemented to make sure all therapists have evidence-based materials at their fingertips to make therapy planning a breeze.
You’ll also want to have pre-made therapy pathways that provide a list of skills to target to achieve various communication outcomes that your clients are looking for.
Again, we’ve built all of those systems inside our Teams Program as well!
Our pre-made therapy pathways and no-prep materials take the guess work out of therapy planning while still allowing for individualization of the therapy.
How to Set Up Systems for Admin Tasks and Paperwork
The other part of our jobs that takes up way too much time and energy is our admin tasks and paperwork.
Creating checklists and systems for admin tasks and paperwork will ensure those tasks get done as quickly as possible and with fewer costly mistakes or errors.
The SLK Teams Program IS the System You Need
I recently had a practice owner tell me that she didn’t need our SLK Teams Program because her SLPs were all independent contractors and there was no burnout.
Just because you can’t see the burnout, doesn’t mean it’s not there.
And just because your team is doing OK, doesn’t mean they couldn’t be doing better.
And it’s not about pushing your team to “do more” or “be better”.
It’s about giving them the tools, systems, and support they need to be the best versions of themselves.
No staff member or independent contractor is ever going to be made you gave them more support.
Our SLK Framework is helping teams around the world maximize their therapy outcomes so they can support more families (both through therapy for kids and through work for SLPs).
Join us today and turn your team into a powerhouse.
