Capacity and workforce management

Better management for your people and your patients

A hospital’s workforce is its biggest expense, so it is critical to appropriately plan for staffing needs and have those needs align to individual patient care. Cerner is committed to delivering automated and intelligent solutions for healthcare organizations to provide the best care at the lowest cost.

CareAware Capacity Management® is a suite of solutions that delivers tools and knowledge to help healthcare providers improve efficiency and patient throughput across a healthcare organization.

CareAware Patient Flow® provides integration between bed management, environmental services and transport workflows to create an efficient patient throughput system. CareAware Tracking provides fully integrated, enterprise-wide positioning and location awareness of patients, staff and equipment. CareAware CareView is an intuitive digital unit whiteboard designed to streamline communication and eliminate documentation redundancies.

 

Workforce management

Cerner Clairvia solutions begin with a simple insight: by assigning the right caregivers to the right patients at the right time, you can improve patient safety and care quality, achieve superior care outcomes and reduce costs. Our solutions are designed to optimize every moment of the care cycle by empowering clients to deliver the right resources to every patient at the point of care.

The solution includes workforce management, which allows staff management, physician scheduling, and patient assignment. Resource demand management allows for care to be based on patient acuity and compares each patient’s expected clinical progress to actual progress, in every moment from admission to discharge. This provides a clear picture of how they may move through the care cycle, and empowers care teams to set evidence-based departure dates.
