Healthcare is one of the largest and most complex industries in the U.S. economy, accounting for 18% of gross domestic product (GDP) in 2020. The aging Baby Boomer generation, combined with the COVID-19 pandemic, is driving an ongoing, strong demand for healthcare workers. Yet the future of remote work in healthcare has been a pressing topic over the past year, as healthcare workers are leaving the industry in droves.
While frontline caregivers were forced to remain on-site, support staff were sent home, pushing health systems to advance technology adoption and providing an opportunity for companies to reevaluate inefficient practices.
With this newfound need to reevaluate day-to-day operational practices, managers found that they needed visibility into the workday and habits to overcome the challenges they faced including:
- Ensuring employees are engaged during business hours
- Verifying that employees are closely aligned to goals
- Adjusting workloads across teams
- Identifying employees that need training or mentoring
- Preventing employee burnout and turnover
- Making work easier through process improvements
By implementing a workforce analytics platform like ActivTrak, healthcare organizations have access to the workforce data they need to address these challenges in an effective, employee-friendly manner.
