We Couldn't Have Said It Better - ShiftWise Client Testimonials

 

 
"The use of ShiftWise has allowed us to assess our agency cost on a weekly basis. Before using ShiftWise our system only allowed us to see our invoices paid monthly. With ShiftWise we are able to see a “real time” total projected invoice amount and after approval, an actual billed invoice amount on a weekly basis. It is easier to eliminate overtime with the use of the latest updated version of ShiftWise, the system notifies you when the shifts you are booking will result in overtime."
Susan Warren, Director of Staffing - Willis Knighton Health System

“ShiftWise has completely turned around our staffing process, saving us both money and time. We are spending less now on agency staff and we now know where we're spending it.”
Bobbi McCormickHouse Supervisor - Silverton Hospital

”We utilize ShiftWise to manage our internal staff float pools and we have automated our time slip approval process by using the ShiftWise interface to our Kronos timekeeping system. ShiftWise has allowed us to manage our costs, assure clinical compliance, and given us back control of what was once a chaotic staffing process. I highly recommend ShiftWise.”
Neil Veloso Budget Analyst of Medical University of South Carolina

"We implemented ShiftWise, which allowed us complete control of the use and monitoring of outside contract agency staff. Within 9 months of implementation of ShiftWise, in conjunction with FlexChoice, we eliminated the use of outside agency nurses and brought over 300 new nurses into our program. Prior to FlexChoice and ShiftWise, our company spent millions of dollars annually on contract staff."
Nini Guindi Coury RN, Corporate Manager, System Staffing Office - St John Health

"We began using ShiftWise in November 2008, at that time we were using 8% agency staff, we are currently using 4% agency staff and have a projected agency savings for FY2009 of $3,000,000. We are able to more accurately monitor our agency usage both daily and long term because of the use of the ShiftWise program."
Susan Warren, Director of Staffing - Willis Knighton Health System
 

"Ever since introducing ShiftWise to our leadership team, our expectations have been exceeded. Time savings, frequent upgrades, unbeatable customer service, and immediate reporting capabilities made it an easy transition for Tuality Healthcare. We are proud to have served as one of the beta sites responsible for developing the system."
Steve Krautscheid, Employment Coordinator - Tuality Healthcare

“ShiftWise has provided efficiency for our nursing management team. They now have time to focus on patient care and safety instead of spending their time making numerous telephone calls to fill open shifts. Our hospital feels very supported by OHA Solutions and ShiftWise. They are very receptive and responsive to our questions and staffing needs.”
Suzanne Gill, RN, D.O.N. - Summa Health

“ShiftWise has helped us put tighter controls in place. Aside from making our staffing process much easier, we have reduced our costs significantly and now have complete over sight of all the credentials for each of the agency staff who work at OSU Medical Center. Finally, we have total control of our agency staffing process, costs, and clinical requirements.”
Dan Tippett Director - Operating Efficiency Human Resources - The Ohio State University Medical Center

Improved Time Keeping and Invoicing Process

“ShiftWise is an excellent program that manages our internal staff to pick up extra shifts and receive overtime rather than utilize agency. If we do use agency, ShiftWise streamlines the usage of paper time slips and paper invoices.  The use of the Staff Time Tracker system allows us to manage our time slips and invoices electronically.  We are easily able to run reports and verify our agency usage upon request. Thank you ShiftWise!”
Amy J. Wright Staffing Coordinator - South Lake Hospital

"Processing several hundred invoices per month for contracted staff was a full time job prior to ShiftWise. Now, we are processing one invoice per week and have an online tool available for managers and agencies to use to assist with the time and invoicing reconciliation process. Information is available for all parties via internet access so we can quickly resolve disputes, which saves us time and allows us to pay our agencies more quickly."
Jonathan Liepe, Director of Staffing - Memorial Health System

Internal Staff Management

"After a thorough investigation of different solutions, we chose the ShiftWise service because of the unmatched flexibility it provided. In addition to effectively managing internal and external pools and closely tracking how staff is allocated and utilized, we are impressed by the ease of communication between finance, accounts payable, agencies and hospitals that the system offers."
Barbara Medvec, Chief Nursing Officer - Oakwood Healthcare, Inc.

"HUGE ASSET! The ShiftWise IRP module has provided our internal staffing agency the tools it needs to move towards becoming agency free, such as having real time access to staff needs for our IRP employees from anywhere they have internet access. One of our IRP employees indicated she was able to access the upcoming job orders while she was on the beach on vacation so that she could book herself to job orders and have work ready for her upon her return."
Jonathan Liepe, Director of Staffing - Memorial Health System

"ShiftWise is now used to manage our flexible workforce. Our nurses love the ease of making themselves available to work with a click of their mouse, and love the notifications they receive about where and when they will be working. Our staffing offices can now efficiently place orders for our nurses, and our ability to monitor work agreement compliance and utilization is effortless."
Nini Guindi Coury RN, Corporate Manager, System Staffing Office - St John Health

“We have noted an immediate reduction in the number of external agency hours and dollars utilized by our facilities. These nurses are Baptist employees and they are perceived by nurses, patients and families in a more positive light than agency nurses. Physicians have also shown an interest in this program in that it will provide a more stable workforce for their patients.”
Steve Sherer, Director of Patient Care - Baptist Health System

“In an effort to reduce the numerous, daily agency calls and interruptions that were impeding productivity, we implemented ShiftWise to streamline our agency staff booking system.  Some of our agencies were calling and canceling several times a day and it felt like we were working for the agencies instead of the other way around. We knew we needed a change. ShiftWise helped us eliminate the problems we were having in this area.”
Marge Doyle, Director of Med/Surg ICU - High Desert Medical Center
