The challenge
MetroHealth struggled with staffing gaps and unfilled shifts, leading to delays in patient care in the emergency department.
With traditional staffing models offering limited flexibility, MetroHealth needed a quick, easy-to-implement solution that would allow them to rapidly scale their workforce while maintaining high-quality care.
The solution
In May of 2024, MetroHealth partnered with CareRev to integrate an on-demand workforce solution, delivering results within the first six months:
- A dedicated network of credentialed healthcare professionals, ready to fill shifts quickly.
- Automated, Joint Commission-certified credentialing and compliance.
- On-demand, intelligent shift posting for optimized scheduling.
- Real-time communication tools for seamless workforce coordination.
The results
- 100+ shifts filled per week by CareRev, on average
- 75+ healthcare professionals in the external float pool
- 2.5k shifts filled in six months
