Murray-Calloway County Hospital Deploys in the Kronos Cloud
Kronos
Incorporated today announced that Murray-Calloway County Hospital
has selected the Kronos (News - Alert) Workforce
Central suite of workforce management solutions to be deployed in
the Kronos
Cloud.
News Facts
-
A community-owned hospital offering a variety of services from support
groups, nursing homes, and home health agencies, Murray-Calloway
needed a centralized, automated workforce management solution for
efficiency improvements across the organization.
-
A long-standing user of the Kronos time and attendance solution, the
hospital decided to extend its use of Kronos by adding absence
management, employee scheduling, human resources, and payroll
applications to fully automate critical processes. This is expected to
help Murray-Calloway achieve its goal of quality care delivery in the
most productive, cost-effective manner.
-
By migrating to the Kronos Cloud, Murray-Calloway will leverage
Kronos' expertise in configuration, maintenance, upgrades, and support
of the workforce management solution, enabling its IT department to
focus resources on other priorities.
-
For added innovation in how the hospital collects time-worked data
from employees, Murray-Calloway also chose Kronos InTouch time clocks
to provide employees more control over their time, enabling them to
easily check accrual balances, request time off, and view schedules -
all in real-time.
-
The Kronos suite was selected after an evaluation of competing
solutions and was chosen because it offers the market's most
comprehensive healthcare workforce management solutions deployed in
the cloud. The hospital decided that such a solution will
significantly improve efficiency, make operations more cost effective,
and free up employees and managers to focus even more on quality care
objectives.
