An assessment of health care staffing tools used today makes it clear that most processes and systems, including electronic scheduling solutions, have been made obsolete by ShiftWizard. Founded by nurses who are intimately familiar with the challenges of a health care environment, ShiftWizard was designed to be intuitive, easy to use, powerful, and low cost.  Available to VHHA members at a group rate, ShiftWizard is a Software as a Service (SaaS) tool that helps manage today’s complex scheduling needs, resulting in reduced costs and increased workforce productivity. The bi-directional interface adapts easily with time and attendance solutions allowing administrators, managers, supervisors and staff the ability to manage all aspects of the scheduling process, including self-scheduling, track scheduling, weekend option, on-call scheduling, vacation, sick-calls, float pool, and agency/traveler utilization. Census-based staffing retrieves ADT information every hour and automatically calculates staffing levels based on each department’s Staffing Matrix, forecasts the variances and presents you with preferred staffing requirements allowed by unit budget.
