FAQs

Does FLO use generic census data or does it use my own hospital's data?

FLO uses each hospital's unique data to create customized schedules.

Does FLO replace my time & attendance solution?

As a decision support tool for nurse managers, FLO works in conjunction with current time & attendance solutions to create an optimized schedule. Once completed, the schedule is uploaded into the current time & attendance solution. Nursing staff would continue to use the current time & attendance solution as previously done.

How is my data loaded into the system?

A one-time onboarding process gathers data from various sources through uploads or by integration. Additional information that is not currently recorded in reports (schedule rules, etc.) can be set up manually. Once entered, the data will be used for each schedule created. Additional census and personnel data is uploaded monthly through the same process.

How is using FLO different from looking at last month's census and schedule to create the new schedule?

By leveraging predictive analytics and operational research methods successfully used in other industries, FLO provides a more accurate forecast of staffing needs and automatically assigns the appropriate number and skill set of staff to meet patient demand. The process timeline for using FLO is matched to the department's current schedule creation timeline. Automation significantly reduces the manual time required for each step in the scheduling process.

Can the scheduling rules be customized to my department?

Yes, all scheduling rules are unique to each department. New rules or additional rules that are currently being followed or tracked manually can be established at any time.

Is FLO an enterprise-wide solution?

FLO software currently supports the fluctuating nurse staffing needs of Emergency Departments and Inpatient Departments. Medecipher is expanding development to become an enterprise-wide solution. 

When would FLO be used?

FLO is used in the mid-term scheduling horizon to establish nurse schedules up to 1-2 months in advance.
