In addition to unplanned absences and last-minute callouts, healthcare facilities need a solution for longer-term needs such as planned sick leave, parental leave, or just being chronically understaffed. Facilities often ask existing staff to fill in or sign contracts with travel agencies, but this often leads to burnt-out staff, costly overtime, and inflexible costly travel contracts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Medely local assignments offer the long-term coverage you need with more flexibility, affordability, and control than typical contracts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Facilities that require more training also love to use assignments. They\u2019re able to pick the professional they want, invest the time to train, and then add them to their favorites list to build a float pool of pre-trained pros. When they need to fill a per diem shift, they can send it to their favorites first, ensuring a smoother transition for everybody.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For Nakei Kemp, human resources manager at Good Samaritan Hospital, assignments were a great way to obtain coverage after an unexpected shortage at her facility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe most recent is the LVN we needed for the month assignment. They gave me two days\u2019 notice that we needed somebody for the whole month, and [my Medely representative] Lindsey was able to come in to find somebody, so we were able to fill it, and we didn\u2019t have a delay. They didn\u2019t have to reschedule patients or any of that, it was prompt, and she was on it,\u201d Nakei Kemp shares<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here\u2019s how Medely assignments work:<\/p>\n\n\n\n We\u2019re excited to announce that we\u2019ve also upgraded our assignments experience with our latest release.
