Jennifer Owen is Practice Principal at Park View Family Dental in Gateshead – a large NHS practice. She is also Local Dental Committee (LDC) chair for the northern region and liaison for the BDA ensuring practices achieve high standards of care. Jennifer discusses her experience of using Kiroku for practices:
“The problem with other notes templates is that all of your notes will look almost exactly the same each time, plus it’s easy to leave options in a template by mistake.
“I bought Kiroku for my team because it makes the practice more efficient. If I can make it as streamlined as possible, then they are free to see more patients. Before Kiroku I had a foundation dentist who, when they were newly qualified, had a 20-minute appointment and spent 45-minutes writing the notes. The balance was completely wrong. Now she would never look back, she’s set for life now.
“Guidance is always changing. We like that Kiroku stays up-to-date automatically, as you don’t always know what you don’t know.
“We regularly have emergency appointments, and we need to know what they’re in for, and why they’re returning to the practice. Kiroku is much better than handwritten notes, I’m used to the format so I know where to look to get key information.”
