Guest post in our health series. Enjoy! – Kimberly

The relationships that GP surgeries have with patients is very different from the standard business-customer relationship. After all, a GP surgery has a great deal of responsibility to protect the patients that use their services.

Update Your Website

Technology has transformed the way that people live their lives completely, and, likely, patients will now be coming to your website for information rather than calling the surgery directly. Therefore, having a strong website that is secure, reliable, and easy to navigate is key to ensuring a high-quality patient experience from the first interaction.

You should make sure that your website design is intuitive, so it is easy to navigate. In addition, since over 50% of internet traffic is now coming from mobile devices, you will benefit from having a responsive website design to ensure all visitors can use your website, regardless of their device.

Offer Online Bookings

Studies have found that more than 60% of patients would prefer to book an appointment digitally rather than having to call up or visit in person. Investing in an online booking portal can help you to offer your patients what they want while also freeing up staff to focus on tasks other than appointment booking.Continue reading

Herbalife Reviews: Three Great Recipes Using Herbalife Aloe

Contributed blog in our health & wellness series. Enjoy! – Kimberly

Herbalife Nutrition Aloe is an unexpectedly delicious and decidedly nutritious addition to Herbalife Shakes. This Product Review will reveal three great recipes for using aloe in Herbalife Nutrition shakes. But the first thing to know is how aloe impacts hydration and nutrition.

Many homes keep an aloe plant close at hand for treating minor cuts, scrapes, and burns. The oozing sap of a freshly cut aloe leaf soothes, coats, and hydrates the skin to help it heal faster. Many skin moisturizers include aloe as one of their major ingredients. Applying aloe to the skin every night helps to keep it smooth, soft, and moisturized.

What many fans of Herbalife shakes don’t know is that aloe consumed orally hydrates the body from the inside out. Applying an aloe moisturizer to your skin every day or every night helps to keep your skin soft and smooth. Drinking Herbalife shakes made with aloe keeps skin smooth, too! And adding aloe to your Herbalife shakes makes them even more hydrating and more delicious.

To reap the benefits of Herbalife aloe, you only need to mix half a fluid ounce (3 capfuls) in half a cup (4 fluid ounces, or 120 ml if you use metric measurements) of water. Aloe also mixes deliciously with other drinks or a Formula 1 shake.

You can also try any of these three great Herbalife aloe recipes originated by Registered Dietitian Susan Bowerman.Continue reading

Having leadership skills is crucial in the NBA, especially if you want to be one of the top players in the league. With that said, the NBA can teach us many things about leadership and in today’s article, we will highlight some of the things that you should absorb from this sport in order to improve your life on every level.

Lead by Example

Being a good leader is all about taking responsibilities and holding yourself accountable before you can hold someone else. This is also the difference between a manager and a leader. Leaders will ask themselves before asking others, and managers only give out orders.

If you expect players to give 100% and always be on time, you should do that yourself. That is the best way to set an example that everyone follows. Continue reading
