WorkLife Concierge: 25 Things You Don't Have To Do Yourself

Written by VITAL WorkLife | January 21, 2016

Life Happens

While physicians are blessed with above average intelligence, competence and endurance, what they lack is time. The demands of your practice and family, your special interests and hobbies mean it’s likely you have less time than you’d like to have a quality work/life balance. A quick call to handle time-consuming, day to day tasks is an easy, guilt-free benefit of your position. WorkLife Assistant (formerly known as Physician concierge) is here to help as a free employment benefit, because your organization believes you deserve a quality work/life balance.

Here’s a list of 25 things you can delegate to your WorkLife Concierge with a single call to make your life easier:

  1. Find your kids a fun, safe summer camp
  2. Score points planning a glamorous surprise anniversary party
  3. Book fun things to do while visiting your in-laws—anywhere in the world
