Daily Operations Checklist for TCM Clinics in Algeria — Open to Close

A clinic day has a rhythm: the opening checks that prevent mid-day failures, the flow disciplines that keep queues honest, and the closing routine that decides whether tomorrow starts clean or starts with yesterday's mess. Clinics that feel calm are not lucky — they run the same unglamorous checklist daily.

Here is the full open-to-close rhythm, with what belongs to people and what belongs to systems.

For tcm clinics specifically: TCM clinics serve a patient base that often prefers Chinese-language service, dispense herbal formulas with hundreds of raw ingredients, and sell treatment in courses — acupuncture packages, tuina sessions — that generic clinic software has no concept of.

In Algeria: law 18-07 on personal data protection (algeria) data-protection alignment; patient identity via national ID / passport; english and العربية / français patient flows.

Opening (15 minutes, checklisted)

Before the first patient:

▸Cold-chain check: vaccine fridge temperature logged (the legally-consequential one)
▸Rooms ready: equipment on, consumables stocked, sterilisation cycles verified
▸Systems up: kiosk on, queue display live, appointment list reviewed for prep needs
▸Float counted and logged; yesterday's exceptions reviewed

Through the day: flow disciplines

The standing rules that keep the day honest: every arrival through the kiosk (no side-door registrations that break the queue), urgent-case flags escalated within minutes, dispensing against e-prescriptions only, and payments posted at the moment taken.

The mid-day pulse

One glance at the dashboard at lunch: morning visits vs normal, current wait time, any queue abandonment. Problems visible at 1pm are fixable by 2pm; problems discovered at closing are tomorrow's apologies.

Closing (10 minutes, not 90)

With automation carrying reconciliation and reminders:

▸Takings auto-reconciled against visit records — review variances only
▸Tomorrow's reminders already sent; review the unconfirmed list
▸Controlled-drug register balances confirmed
▸Day report glanced: visits, revenue, waits, no-shows — anomalies flagged for morning

TCM Clinic operational realities

▸Elderly patients struggle with English-only registration and signage

▸Herbal dispensary inventory (raw herbs, granules) is untracked or on paper

▸Acupuncture / tuina treatment packages are tallied in notebooks

▸Physician consultation notes and formulas live in handwritten Chinese script

Frequently asked questions

What is the most commonly skipped daily task?

The vaccine-fridge temperature log — skipped on busy mornings, catastrophic at audit or after a power event. Digital checklists with timestamps make the skip visible the same day.

How long should closing take?

With automated reconciliation and reminders: 10–15 minutes. If closing takes an hour, the tasks consuming it are almost certainly automatable.

Does this apply differently to tcm clinics?

TCM Clinics have specific operational realities — chinese-first patient experience — herbal dispensary inventory, treatment courses, and bilingual records. The platform ships tcm clinic-specific workflows on the same foundation; see the dedicated pages under /clinic-types.

What is specific to Algeria?

Law 18-07 on Personal Data Protection (Algeria) data-protection alignment; documentation practices per Ministère de la Santé Algérie. Patient identity runs on national ID / passport; billing and payments run locally (local payment methods and Visa/Mastercard, billed in DZD (د.ج)).
