Flexible, real-time scheduling to meet patient care demands
Explore shift management system
Healthcare systems need agility in how they deploy their workforce.
Per diem staff, internal float pools, and locum tenens providers all play vital roles in meeting fluctuating patient demand—but managing them manually is complex. Delays, compliance risks, and fragmented processes create gaps in care.

With real-time scheduling, automated compliance, and intelligent shift matching, organizations can optimize their internal workforce first while seamlessly engaging external resources when needed.
