ADAM partners with MedMatch Dental

The Association of Dental Administrators and Managers (ADAM) has formed a partnership with specialist dental recruitment company MedMatch Dental to help navigate the pressures and demands of recruiting for dental practices.

Chairperson of ADAM, Lisa Bainham, said: “I’m delighted that MedMatch Dental have recognised the importance of Practice Managers within the dental industry and we’re thrilled to welcome them as a sponsor of ADAM in 2024.  Recruitment issues are ongoing in the industry, and something we are consistently asked about is how to make the task of filling vacancies easier. With MedMatch Dental I personally have firsthand experience of their expertise, service and dedication to finding the right candidate for the right role. They are an asset we know our members are going to undoubtedly appreciate.”

Gary Lehal, MedMatch Dental Team Leader, said: “It’s a great pleasure to finally be partnering up with the Association of Dental Administrators and Managers – this is a partnership we’ve been excited about for a very long time now, and one which we hope will continue long into the future. Practice Management and the vital tasks that come with the role plays an integral part in the Dentistry Sphere and recruitment within the sector. On top of being the initial point of contact for prospective Clinicians and members of staff, the Practice Manager is responsible for the wellbeing of patients and in situ staff; the smooth running of the Clinic and the organisation of the team as a whole. Maintaining the operational integrity of the practice is pivotal in the recruitment of high calibre candidates and failing in any aspect can mean the difference between securing and losing a potential hire.

“We also believe continuing Professional Development is essential in any career, particularly for a position as essential as Practice Management. This is why we are partnering up with ADAM; as we alongside them want to increase their representation in the dentistry world and heavily support their ethos and values.

“We hope the partnership between Medmatch Dental and ADAM will be a long and fruitful one!”

ADAM looks forward to engaging with profession face-to-face

Chris Baker, Honorary President of the Association of Dental Administrators and Managers (ADAM), discusses why the organisation will be attending the British Dental Conference and Dentistry Show Birmingham this May:

“We are very much looking forward to the show and engaging with different team members in real life – it will be long overdue. We hope to spread the word about what ADAM can offer all those with an admin or management role, not just practice managers.

“Being part of an organisation such as ours is even more important in light of the increased compliance requirements and the expanding role of managers and administrators in practice. We provide invaluable support with a like-minded community who can help with everything from legal issues to marketing concerns. We want you to know that you are not alone.

ADAM President, Lisa Bainham added, “At the event we’ll be giving out the famous ADAM pink bags and other freebies, as well as offering £40 off our already highly affordable membership fee for new joiners. We also hope to catch up with many of the kind companies and individuals who have supported us throughout the years.

“ADAM has attended the British Dental Conference and Dentistry Show Birmingham for many years and it’s always a great opportunity to see members and meet new people. It delivers a fun-filled couple of days with plenty going on. Since the pandemic, we have all learnt how much we can do remotely, but there really is no substitute for face-to-face interaction!”

The next British Dental Conference and Dentistry Show Birmingham will be held on Friday 13th and Saturday 14th May 2022, Birmingham NEC, co-located with DTS.
