THE CareStaff HEALTHCARE SOLUTION
The Problem: Healthcare organizations struggle to meet fiscal targets while retaining staff and focusing on the primary mission - improved patient outcomes. Qualified staff shortages complicate these efforts. In order to meet mandated staffing ratios, most organizations augment internal team members with resources provided by agencies, registries and travel nurse associations at significant additional cost and complexity.
The cost of obtaining the needed staff on a shift by shift basis consumes 3-6% of the total Human Capital Spend across the Healthcare industry. Today's resource-intensive process to make sure the right people with the right skills and certifications arrive at the right time is incredibly costly and seriously detracts from patient outcomes.
An average care enterprise with 5000 employees, 14% turnover, 5% absence rate and 5% overtime, performs over 37,000 manual transactions in one month just to manage the difference between the acuity model and staff. This takes in account 2-4 "legacy systems" in place to automate portions of an inefficient process. Factoring in the amount of time scheduling, supervisory and clerical staff spend on these functions, this same organization will spend approximately $4-$6 million a year to manage these transactions.
The CareStaff Solution delivers a best practice, shared services model that helps our customers reduce transaction costs by more than 50% with Return on Investment in most cases in less than 6 months.
Staff retention rates also improve because the staff is empowered with more control over their personal schedules while the enterprise experiences measurable increases in open shift fill ratios. CareStaff clients experience larger internal float pool resources and a corresponding drop in registry expense. When senior professional staff is freed from the manual staffing processes they currently endure, they have more time to focus on patient care and mentoring young team members. This leads to better patient outcomes.
CareStaff's mature reporting and alerting tools allow supervisory staff to better manage to their department's staffing budgets as well as identify coverage issues and employee trends. Real-Time views of actual staff coverage to census projects allows departments heads to proactively adjust coverage by identifying the exact resources to be contact to come in or be offered early release.
In addition to the automation cost savings our customers realize, technology savings are inherent because they do not have to invest in hardware, software, IT staff and specialized database or administrative expenses. The SaaS (Software as a Service) delivery model provides for guaranteed system uptime, the most up to date hardware and software required and complete system administration for the application.
