“The Staffing Advantage: Strategies to Reduce Labor Costs”
With staffing being a top priority in long term care, THCA Region Chairs have partnered with our Associate Business Member, OnShift, to provide information on proven practices to immediately eliminate unnecessary labor costs through a Whitepaper. The information helps us to identify how to: Predict and prevent overtime from happening; Implement flexible staffing strategies to meet changing demand; and fill open shifts quickly with best choice replacement. Your copy of The Staffing Advantage: Strategies to Reduce Labor Costs is available to download today.
