At GP HERO, we lighten the load on General Practice owners and their teams by hiring, training and managing professional off site receptionists and administrators.
Welcome GP Clinic Owners & Managers
Is your clinic drowning in endless admin tasks and phone calls?
Finding quality admin and reception staff in Australia is becoming increasingly difficult due to the biggest skills shortage in living memory.
And, once you finally complete the recruitment process the challenges continue with starting salaries now as high as $80K in capital cities and many clinics reporting an average turnover on reception staff as low as 6 months!
Since it is extremely hard to find extra staff at short notice, remaining staff are often reaching burnout, overwhelmed by an avalanche of endless tasks, and at risk of calling it quits themselves.
Daily tasks slip by the wayside, and many clinic owners and managers are left feeling like they are on a never ending cycle of hiring and training new people and never on top of all the things that need to get done in the clinic.
Surely there has to be a better way… (and there is!)
Outsourcing Safely
Get more stuff done without risking privacy.
We understand that public perception can be that utilising overseas staff is a higher risk to your clinic and patients privacy – but managed well, this does not have to be the case. At GP HERO our privacy and security standards are not just “as-safe” as local facilities, but far safer. We exceed all the Australian standards set by accrediting and insurance bodies and we are so confident in our services that GP HERO Australia covers all liability in the unlikely event of a data breach so that you can have complete peace of mind.
