Follow on Google News | Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust Implements Kronos SMART For Improved EfficienciesBy: PR Artistry News Facts · By replacing manual, error-prone workforce management processes with the Kronos SMART solution, Salford Royal has achieved significant benefits across all 41 wards. For example, the Kronos SMART solution offers ward and nurse managers real-time visibility into critical labour data to help them more effectively manage shifts and track annual leave entitlement- · Additionally, with the Kronos SMART solution, the Trust has introduced standardised shift patterns as there are now three 12-hour shifts in eight-week cycles, each one starting and finishing at the same time.Ward managers can also track nursing hours more effectively and are better able to reduce their reliance on more expensive NHS Professionals (NHSP) or bank staff. And employees appreciate the transparency of the system and the freedom to record their hours, view their holidays, and apply to swap shifts themselves. · The Kronos SMART solution has become an intrinsic part of the Trust’s workforce efficiency project and the successful implementation has been a catalyst for positive cultural change, as the hospital can now focus even more on patient care delivery.
