staffing software

New Clinical OR Manager looking for information on staffing software. I currently am using pencil/paper method of scheduling staff. It has been done this way for the past 14 years. It takes about 12 hours to schedule all specialties and meet minimum requirements of number of staff at specified hours throughout the day. I am looking at purchasing software that is easy to use but thorough. Any information will be helpful.

I was in the same situation you are currently in. I run a 40 bed med/surg unit have schedule over 60 employees. The hand schedule and then daily staffing summary were driving me crazy. I did a rather heavy search and finally found Visual Staff Scheduler Pro. I have just started to use it and really love it. I can summarize my daily staffing with a click of a button and I love that.

Without soundling like a commerical, it is worth exploring. It is easy to use and sets up easily for your particular situation. There is a single version cost or the networking version. It seems pretty reasonable. Good luck!
