You know that sinking feeling you get before walking into a patient room, when you suddenly think: “Wait.. what exactly am I going to do with this patient?” Creating a treatment plan entails a complex synthesis of the patient's needs, the available evidence, and your expertise. It's no wonder it can be hard to pull all this information together on the spot. So, it's easy to see why therapists are starting to utilize AI tools as a brainstorming assist for treatment planning. But, this also raises SO MANY questions. Which tools should I trust? What are the limitations? What are the ethical considerations? In this webinar, we are talking with a practicing PT, Cody Lee,  about the benefits he has found from using AI as a treatment planning companion. And, practical ways you can get started doing the same, so you can begin riding this wave that is going to transform healthcare. You can find more details on this course here:https://otpotential.com/ceu-podcast-courses/ai-and-treatment-planningSupport the show

Though the steps involved in developing a good, evidence-based treatment plan are well documented on our podcast, what good is any of that hard work if the families you purport to use it with kinda, sorta hate your plan. Well, this week, rather than complaining about how unappreciated your procedures are, why not take a step back and ask yourself, “How can I better learn from families I work with what will meet their needs?” We take a run down to explore the ever-confusing and complex world of family services, take a qualitative look at social validity in treatment planning, and review some key contexts that spell the difference between a good plan and a plan that works.

Drs. Tiffany A. Traina and Claudine Isaacs discuss how they approach HER2+ early breast cancer treatment planning and which patients can take advantage of de-escalation.

In today's episode, Dr. Killeen shares one of the best treatment planning tips he's learned from his partner, Dr. Brandon Chapek. What makes Dr. Chapek so successful at gaining case acceptance? It's not about showcasing his skills or expertise—it's about focusing on the patient. When you shift from trying to be interesting to being interested, everything changes. By asking thoughtful questions, listening deeply, and making patients feel truly understood, you naturally build trust—and with trust comes acceptance. Tune in to learn how this simple mindset shift can transform your patient relationships and treatment planning success.

Let's dive into treatment planning, shall we? ;) Somehow I haven't made an episode about treatment planning in the 6+ years of making private practice content. It's time! In this episode, I share some more nuanced thoughts beyond the typical assessment tools and SMART goals that we usually learn about when talking about treatment planning. I hope some of you find this useful. Keep in mind that I'm just sharing how I approach treatment planning.

In this episode, we dive deep into the critical importance of forward-thinking treatment planning in dental practice. Too often, reactive decision-making — addressing problems as they arise — can lead to rushed, emergency situations that disrupt both the dentist's schedule and the patient's long-term oral health. But how can we transition from this reactive mindset to one that anticipates issues and builds a comprehensive, proactive treatment plan? We'll explore strategies to minimize last-minute crises in your schedule while also empowering patients to take ownership of their dental health. You'll learn how to shift the conversation from "fixing" isolated dental issues to promoting full, comprehensive care that helps patients understand the importance of addressing underlying problems before they become emergencies. In this episode, we'll break down the differences between single-tooth dentistry — where issues are dealt with in isolation — and comprehensive diagnosis, which looks at the patient's entire oral health landscape. Adopting a comprehensive approach not only improves patient outcomes but also helps you run a more efficient and sustainable practice. We'll discuss the profound impact this shift can have, not just on patient care but on the overall success of your practice. Join us as we share practical tips, real-life examples, and actionable advice for transforming your treatment planning process. Whether you're looking to reduce stress, enhance patient trust, or improve your bottom line, this episode will give you the tools you need to elevate your practice and become the proactive, forward-thinking clinician you aspire to be.
