Accurate Data Payroll Processing helps assisted living facility put an end to scheduling conflicts, cover gaps, and increase quality while raising staff member morale.
Suncrest Assisted Living management was worrying about maintaining quality resident care because they had to respond to a continual cascade of scheduling changes. Every schedule change resulted in a stream of unproductive emails, texts, and phone calls that wasted time, confused staff members, and curtailed productivity for days at a time.
Frustrated Employees
Suncrest Assisted Living has a workforce of 23 including on-site nurses and caretakers, aides, administrative staff, and housekeeping workers. A small on-site labor force means schedules aren’t very flexible and have little room to absorb change, which happens often.
Unplanned schedule changes generated a time-consuming process of sending emails and texts to all qualified team members to find a replacement. Managers were often required to coordinate fractional shift changes to adapt to overlapping availabilities. The result was a domino effect that often caused unanticipated consequences including costly overtime and coverage gaps. The extra burden, added confusion, and personal disruption was taking a toll.
