Topic: Elevating the Quality of Care Through Staffing Optimisation and Flexibility.

This roundtable will explore the correlation between a resourced, empowered workforce in healthcare and the quality of care that is delivered to key stakeholders (e.g., patients, clients, etc). There are many variables that impact workforce efficiency, but technology’s direct influence is skyrocketing above all else. The UKG Healthcare team will facilitate a roundtable discussion with your thought leadership input on:

How employee self-service tools can improve employee satisfaction
The role of workforce technology in easing the pressure of fatigue, burnout, and churn on healthcare employees
The importance of roster efficiency on fulfilling shifts with the right people, with the right skills, in the right place, at the right time
Opportunities for action when managers of healthcare organisations have true visibility into real-time data
Trends in care standards when employees engage with technology that improves operational efficiency & work-life balance

Topic: How important is continuous monitoring? How vital is that monitoring for those who are older, or more susceptible to infection or disease?

Imagine that you are sitting in front of your TV. As you recline in your seat, the beginning of a feature film flashes onto the screen in front of you. But after watching for only a minute, you are interrupted by visitors. Halfway through the film, you return for another minute of viewing, and then once more at the end. All in all you get 3 minutes of movie time.

Now, you are asked to reconstruct the story. Who were the main characters? How did they relate to one another? And why did the movie end the way it did?

Piecing together an entire movie like this would be challenging, if not impossible. Yet in health care, that is how we typically interact with patients. When patients head to the doctor they are already sick, their pathology history is unknown as they used 3 different doctors in the last year. Their vitals are OK now you are seeing them, but clearly have been wildly varying in between visits to the GP
