Assignments & Scheduling
Trade hours in spreadsheets for minutes in ES Optimizer.
Balanced work assignments.
“The basics of any EVS department revolve around staffing, good work assignments, and follow through.” Smart Facility Software’s Shawn Wright repeats this fundamental equation frequently. EVS Managers know that successful infection prevention involves thousands of tasks and work assignments every day. Managers also know that software is the best tool to make those thousands of assignments balanced, standardized and manageable.
The original staffing scheduling software that always adapts.
The most used and trusted tool for making good EVS work assignments is Smart Facility’s ES Optimizer software— the software that was built for EVS managers by EVS managers. It remains the leading tool because it adapts every season when hospital and staffing needs evolve.
