We have had this problem too, and have reinstituted a buddy program that we had had when we were still in development. New people have a buddy who is available to answer questions which they may feel uncomfortable asking or just bring them up to speed on things. A person might feel dumb asking repeated questions, and the buddy system institutionalizes it and makes it ok.
