Dental Office Appreciation Ideas for Teachers, Nurses, and Police Officers during May 2022

Hello Friends,

The month of May brings many wonderful opportunities to reach out to and build relationships and show our appreciation to more people in the community. Here is why:

During the month of May you have:

Teacher Appreciation Week: 2nd – 6th

National Nurses Day and Week: 6th -12th  

National Hospital Week: 8th – 14th

National Nursing Home Week8th -14th

National Police Week:  15th -21st

We don’t need a “reason” to celebrate and aknowledge our hard-working and awesome teachers, nurses, and police officers however the month of May gives us that extra boost to do so. Don’t let this great opportunity and privilege to reach out to the teachers, nurses, and police officers in your community pass you by.

How can you reach out to them? Here are a few ideas for you:

First, let’s start with any of your patients that are teachers, nurses, or police officers.

Run a report with any patients that are school teachers, nurses, and police officers and send “We Appreciate You” cards to them. Unexpected and very much welcomed.

Put together some little thank you gifts to give your patients that are teachers/nurses/police officers when they come in for their dental appointment during the month of May.

See my Pinterest Board for a ton of ideas: Appreciation Gift Ideas

Second, reach out to the teachers, nurses, and officers in the community that are not “yet” patients at your office.

Host a Favorite Teacher/Nurse/Police Officer Contest and promote it via your social media platforms. Invite the community to nominate (TAG) their favorites. The winner receives FREE teeth whitening (or another special offer), a gift card to a local business, and a certificate stating they won (your office name) for the favorite teacher/nurse/police officer contest in your community.

You could easily ask for donations of prizes or gift cards from local businesses to add to the winning prize.

Deliver treats and/or toothbrush bags to your local schools, hospitals, doctors’ offices, fire station, and/or police stations.

At the very least you can use your social media platforms to show your love and appreciation for these special and hard-working folks in the community.

There are so many ways to celebrate teacher appreciation, police officers, and nurses’ week in your dental office.  

If you appreciated these complimentary ideas – I would love for you to please leave me a review/recommendation here on GOOGLE and/or FACEBOOK.

Wishing you all a very happy, healthy, and productive Spring!

Dentist Office Marketing Tips and Ideas for May 2021

Hello Friends,

How are things looking for you and your goals for 2021? What are your plans to exceed your patients expectations, engage with the commnity, and have more fun as a team during your second quarter?

Even if your schedule is full and you’re really busy you want to continue to plant your marketing (growth) seeds. Everything that you do, everything that the patient (and potential patient) sees, hears & feels is a form of marketing. Everything you do or don’t do, matters. Your marketing (growth) seeds help you to consistently deliver excellent experiences for your patients and get them talking about you.
