#26: Creating Your Employee Handbook

An employee handbook might not sound exciting, but it’s one of the most powerful tools you can create for your clinic. It sets expectations, protects you as an employer, and communicates the culture you want to build with your team.

In this episode of Physicians Hanging a Shingle, we discuss:

• Why an employee handbook is essential from day one
• When to go over it with staff and how often to review it
• General examples of what to include (without the overwhelm)
• How to keep it updated as your practice grows

Whether you’re just getting ready to hire your first employee or already have a team in place, this episode will help you see your handbook as more than paperwork — it’s a tool for building a stronger, smoother-running practice.
