Clients
often call us asking, "What is the best schedule for
my facility?" Or what
is the best schedule to use when a facility moves from 5 to
7 days? Or what is
the best 12 hour schedule? The list goes on and on, with each
client wanting
the best schedule for their situation. However as we start
to work with them
they soon realize that schedule design is the easy part of
developing a new
schedule. The key to developing the right schedule is to understand
the unique
aspects of each facility: the operations and labor strategy
required to make the
business successful, inputs from employees to gain their buy-in,
as well as the
safety and health aspects. Once the above issues are carefully
studied only
then can you start to debate the pros and cons of different
schedule systems
that meet the above requirements. Then a comprehensive implementation
strategy must be developed to ensure that the cost saving
benefits are
achieved and to eliminate or minimize any potential negative
effects of change.
At Core Practice Partners we have a proven methodology to
find the right
schedule for your facility. Our projects pay for themselves
within 6 months with
year after year savings that often reach several million dollars.
