Elevate Your Hospital & Aged Care Operations with Expert Consulting Services

Rostering & Scheduling.

Getting the right person, with the right ability (and affability in some instances), in the right place, at the right time - is an increasing challenge from health & aged care services.

Add to the above an increased regulatory environment, a push towards home services (bringing last-mile complexity) and structural challenges in workforce supply.

What does this all mean? Planning capability (a capability that is unfortunately limited in the industry today) is a critical requirement if we are to empower rostering & scheduling teams to drive the required consistency in standards of care for Australian patients and the elderly.

trace. can help with our aged care consulting services. We can help your business build an effective planning and scheduling process, supported by the right technology to add reliability, scalability and efficiency into your workforce operating model.

Workforce planning & scheduling is a key priority for aged care providers – enabling consistent, compliant standards in patient care and scalable operating models to drive growth.

Healthcare and Hospital Logistics Operations - Back of House Logistics.

The Health Care industry andcHospitals do not traditionally think of themselves as having a supply chain function. In this environment, BOH and supply chain operations – the flow and storage of medical goods and equipment along with ancillary support such as linen and food services – often evolve organically leading to:

Inconsistent levels of service & responsiveness for clinical teams
lost opportunity in terms of service, cost and experience for patients
risk in the forms of safety, congestion, and controls for staff
sub-optimal clinical and patient outcomes
risks in compliance and operating standards

How can effective workforce planning benefit aged care providers?

For an aged care business to be successful, it is essential to have a well-thought-out workforce plan. By taking the time to sit down and map out exactly who you need on your team and when, you will be able to avoid many common pitfalls. A good workforce plan will consider things like:

  • The specific needs of your clients
  • The current skills and experience of your team members
  • The projected growth of your business
  • Available funding packages

Key benefit areas of effective scheduling include: 

Scheduling Effort Time Allocation, Scheduling Centralisation, Scheduling Automation, Scheduling Scalability, Route Optimisation, Field Staff Utilisation, Spend Optimisation.

By taking these factors into account, you will be able to create a workforce plan that will benefit your business in both the short and long run.
