Team Caring Hearts is on their way to wellness….with self-scheduling!
Team caring Hearts is proud to announce they have implemented self-scheduling for all nursing personnel in the Health Care Center. Our employees and St. Leonard gain a great deal when employees create their own schedules. Work-related benefits include improving self-development, productivity, job satisfaction, and commitment. In addition, employees become more responsible through determining their own schedules. Staff members can spend more time with family and better coordinate daycare and commuting. This process gives them freedom to pursue educational goals and enjoy a more active social life. Working with colleagues of one's choice makes for a happier crew. Our old scheduling practice had assignments with days fixed by management with little or no thought given to individual preference. The old process consumed much of management’s time and energy trying to maintain the schedules and manage the conflict it sometimes caused. We needed a change! So, last fall, Dr. Govind Bharwani, along with his daughter Meena started us on this journey to a full implemented, transparent self-scheduling system. The entire system is computerized and managed by Susan Micucci, Administrative Assistant of the Health Care Center. She is the driving force keeping the system processes flowing seamlessly. We are proud of the work we have accomplished and look forward to the next stop on our wellness journey. ~Sherry Vines DON~
