How We Can Help You
Best Practice Consultancy
When you work with Best Practice, you are getting the benefit of 20+ years experience of working closely with GPs and their teams on all aspects of running a successful Practice
I know that when Doctors choose to specialise in General Practice, that unlike many other specialisms, they are rarely prepared for the challenges of running a business and managng staff.
Best Practice provides a range of bespoke Consultancy Services to help GPs and their Teams navigate these challenges. Services include Business Strategy, Practice Reviews, HR Support, Website Project Management and Staff Assessments.
To ensure that Practices always receive the best advice, we partner with experts in the areas of HR, Health & Safety, GDPR, Cyber Security and Website Development.
Our mission is to allow GPs more time to be the Doctors they want to be.

"As a GP working in General Practice for more than 30 years , I highly recommend Asumpta to all GP’s interested in increasing their business efficiency and income. My only regret is I didn’t find her sooner! Her clarity in assessing and resolving business solutions for Irish GP’s is unique"

Practice Reviews
To date, Best Practice has carried out Practice Reviews in over 50 GP Practices throughout Ireland. In 100% of those Practices, I have identified some level of unclaimed income with amounts varying from €4.5 to €75 thousand euros.
This was a huge surprise even to me initially. Much of it was relatively easy to recognise as I know where to look and what to look for. However, there are also occasions where I need to dig a little deeper.
A Practice Review however, is much more than this. When you work with Best Practice, you get a bespoke Best Practice Tooklit which contains practical tips on all aspects of your Practice to include Practice Systems, Streamlined Processes, Staff Roles, Effective Delegation, Utilising Practice Resources, Practice Protocols and much more.
- Are there times when you feel overwhelmed with managing your Practice?
- Are your staff proficient and knowledgeable in their respective roles?
- Are you fully maximising on your income?
- Do you feel that your Practice would benefit from having a Practice Review?
"Asumpta Gallagher is the most inspirational person I have met in her field. I have been a principal in Irish General Practice for over twenty years and I am also a GP trainer, a CME tutor and a lecturer in General practice so I do not make that claim lightly .I was blessed when Asumpta came to my practice in 2018 .
She has a critical but kindly eye, and knows how to respectfully and intelligently bring change and inspiration to any GP practice.She has a huge amount of practical knowledge and she is particularly good at optimising practice expenditure. Assumpta would be an asset to any practice; she is realistic, astute and patient as well as being great company .I am so glad that I have met her and I am glad to recommend her highly as an expert in Practice management and training."

Our Experience
To date, Best Practice has provided Tailored Training to over 500 GPs, Practice Managers and Practice Staff both live and online.
We are so delighted to be collaborating with LHP Skillnet who are subsiding the cost of all the Training courses.
Since March 2020, 95% of this training has been delivered online and I am delighted to say that it has being received very positively.
Delivering training online has a significant added benefit of Staff/GPs being able to apply the learning during the training session as opposed to just writing down notes to refer to later.
Check out the Best Practice Academy for details on all upcoming Training Programmes.
Train your staff to leave, but excite them to stay!

I absolutely recommend Asumpta 100%. She is hugely experienced and provided clarity and advice over and above what I expected. She is insightful and thorough, doesn't shy away from challenging potentially difficult issues. I have no hesitation in recommending her.

Insights
"Our Practice recently contacted Asumpta from Best Practice to help deal with a sensitive issue in our Practice. I found her to be capable, sensitive to the issues, positive, attentive and I don’t think she could have handled the situation better or that as a Practice we could have had a better outcome. When Asumpta initially visited our Surgery, she met with the Principals of the Practice and it was clear at that meeting, that she already had a basic grasp of what was involved from the brief memo we had shared with her. This inspired condence and led to a level of efficiency in the interactions. We found her to be accessible, clear in her observations, almost endlessly positive and optimistic and ambitious to achieve an end that seemed unachievable to us. We would be happy to recommend her services to any of our colleagues. "

"Can’t say enough about how much Asumpta has helped our practice. An initial meeting followed by
a surgery visit identifying important areas of focus. She was able to quickly get a sense of us as a
team which was crucial in terms of identifying and implementing improvements without making
anyone feel at fault. Asumpta spent a short period of time with us but has made an enormous
difference not just in the numbers but also the people and why they are doing what they are doing.
You will gain far more than you spend here."
