Description The market for long-term care has known and continues to know tremendous growth. Quality is a high focus in the public interest, and as the aging baby-boomers begin to require care, the sector will have to deal with residents that are consumers as much as patients. In an environment of changing legislation, shortage of skilled nurses, and strong need for cost containment, nursing homes that aim to provide prime quality care focus on their employees.

Challenge The nursing home sector is very labor intensive. With the rising demand for care, the American Medical Assiociation predITs that the nursing shortfall will reach 400,000 by the year 2020. Employee competency and retention are a top priority. How can nursing homes attract and retain skilled nurses? Flexible and employee-friendly work schedules are among the top features nurses are looking for in a potential employer. At the same time, optimized, demand-driven work schedules reduce the costs for contingent workforce and overtime.
