With the recent news about earthquakes, floods and tsunamis it reminds us that anything can happen and we must be prepared! Best practices have shown that we should have an exit strategy in place in case of certain situations occurring that are beyond our control. But why don’t most people have one?
Do you have an exit strategy in place to address the unexpected when it comes to an IT failure? What is your exit strategy in case of a fire, flood or natural disaster? What if your computer crashes tomorrow morning or a virus wipes out all your data? Would you be able to effectively cope with this situation and its potential affect on your practice? If you don’t have a plan in place to handle these types of unexpected events, perhaps you should start thinking about one!
The key is to plan ahead for the unexpected and always be prepared! The more prepared you can be for these situations the less likely it will be that the impact is severe and will disrupt your practice for any length of time.
Last but not least, remember to have an exit strategy in place to protect your mission critical data. Whether it is patient records, emails or confidential business documents…. to have your data available is priceless!
To discuss an exit strategy for your practice…
