Staffing Analysis

After schedules are built, managers should rarely encounter situations that require in-the-moment staffing decisions.  Managers can view staffing from the enterprise level down to any unit, for each shift and for any combination of skills on a single screen.

i-Choice^® Incentive Management

This customized nurse incentive solution prevents staffing crises before they happen.  i-Choice continuously weighs census predictions against available staff and automatically posts open shifts for your staff to select.  Wages, set by your organization, fluctuate in parallel with patient need, keeping the overall pay rate at a budget-neutral constant.

Avantas Predictive Model

The Predictive Model was designed specifically for hospital systems to take the mystery out of staffing.  Because it anticipates patient care needs far in advance of the actual shift, it proactively balances core staff schedules prior to posting critical staffing needs appropriate for contingency resources.  A combination of mathematical models considers a range of time series and explanatory variables thus enabling organizations to better manage the fluctuating demand for nurses and healthcare staff.  When customized to fit your organization, the Avantas Predictive Model drills down to the unit, skill and shift levels and rolls up to the entire enterprise with amazing accuracy.

The Avantas Predictive Model fully enables your organization to experience truly Proactive Staffing.
