How to Utilize Staff Productivity Data argues that hospice providers can address the staffing crisis by using productivity metrics to understand where clinician performance is thriving or lagging, especially as burnout, inflexible schedules, long shifts, and short staffing continue to drive nurses away from bedside care. The brief highlights HCHB Analytics for tracking clinician satisfaction and attrition risk, and positions HCHB Smart Scheduling as a way to better match visit types to licensure, improve continuity of care, reduce scheduling cost, and give nurses more confidence in visit volume and shift availability. It also shares broader operational strategies from Trustbridge Hospice, including focusing hiring on direct care roles, offering more flexible scheduling, supporting staff self-care, off-loading selected nursing tasks, using geographic scheduling to reduce drive time, and aligning compensation with market demand.
