How Smart Square® Transformed Workforce Efficiency at Hackensack Meridian Health

In 2015, Hackensack Meridian Health embarked on a transformative journey to streamline and optimize their staffing processes. One of their most significant achievements was reducing Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) leakage from 15% in 2022 to 8.5% in 2023, translating to a savings of $616,000. The catalyst for this transformation was the implementation of Smart Square®, a predictive scheduling tool from AMN Healthcare designed to enhance workforce efficiency and reduce operational costs.

📈 The Need for Change: Hackensack Meridian Health's previous system lacked modern capabilities, such as self-scheduling and direct shift selection, leading to integration issues. The need for a more advanced and cohesive solution became evident, prompting the adoption of Smart Square.

🚀 Implementing Smart Square: Initially adopted by five hospitals, Smart Square's use expanded during the COVID-19 pandemic, eventually integrating into more hospitals. The system's detailed dashboards provided a holistic view of staffing needs, enabling informed decisions and improving operational efficiency.

💡 Key Benefits:

Predictive Analytics: Precise staffing forecasts for optimal workforce allocation.
