Key Words at Key Times
Who is most important to patients
in health care?
Lets think about it
Can patients get the right treatment for successful outcomes
without providers to diagnose?
Can a provider deliver care without a skilled nursing staff?
Can nursing provide care if there are no supplies on the unit?
Can we purchase supplies without a strong operating margin?
Can we monitor budgets without valid finance reports?
Will finance reports be available if IT isnt responsive to
computer issues?
Will patients return to the hospital if it seems unclean?
How valuable is good nutrition to healing?

Tips for when and how to use AIDET速
1. The elements of AIDET速 are important in every
interaction with a customer on some level.
2. Elements of AIDET速 do not have to be delivered in any
specific order.
3. There are times when you will need to verbalize only
one or two of the elements of AIDET速.
 Ask yourself: are there gaps I may need to fill for the
person I am talking with?
When walking down the hall
The 10/5 Rule is a visual manifestation of the organizations
commitment to excellent service by everyone.
 At 10 feet
 Make eye contact, SMILE and/or nod to
those you encounter

wrong? Do they look lost? Can I see a gap?
 NO. Move on
 YES. Approach the customer; introduce
yourself and ask how you can help.

something?

the following:

but any of our employees will be happy to help you!

you?
