Fargo, ND - February 23, 2017 - Atlas Business Solutions, Inc. announced today that Pike Medical Consultants of Indianapolis, Indiana has fully implemented the healthcare staff scheduling software, ScheduleAnywhere.
Prior to using ScheduleAnywhere, the medical practice managed all of their scheduling on a series of spreadsheets. There were approximately three spreadsheets that all compiled into a weekly all-staff schedule. When Sarah Morrison, FNP-BC, COHN-S, took over as Director of Clinical Operations, she quickly realized that the scheduling needed a new process.
"It took me about one week of hair pulling to decide that we were wasting too much employee time trying to get this done weekly," Morrison said.
In the Fall of 2016, Morrison worked together with ScheduleAnywhere to implement the healthcare staff scheduling software into their operations plan. Now, they have multiple section leaders entering information for their employees, which has helped to balance the workload.
The entire Pike Medical Consultants team has embraced the new scheduling software throughout the implementation process. Employees have enjoyed the easy access to their schedule from their phone or computer. As a whole, Pike Medical Consultants has had a much easier time of keeping track of who is working where, and when they are scheduled to work. This has minimized some of the many headaches that came from using the outdated scheduling system of compiling multiple spreadsheets every week into one schedule.
"The staff were excited for the switch," commented Morrison. "They enjoy being able to see their schedule at a glance, and also knowing who they will be working with on their next shift."
