DISC PERSONALITY THEORY TO COMMUNICATE WITH PATIENTS

Use the DISC personality theory to better communicate with patients. Claire and Ben go into the psychology of behaviour and talk about how this can be used when treating patients. It's fascinating stuff. Being a hygienist and therapist is so much more than clinical work.

The Agony Aunt and Agony Uncle this week is someone who write in asking the pair to discuss using ineffective equipment, it seems they are having an issue with the kit they are using. Is this something you are contending with. Hear Ben and Claire's advice on what you can do to improve this for yourself.
