Eclipsys Nurse Executive Solutions™ help monitor and predict patient demand for care and accurately schedule nursing resources based on patient needs. As more states legislate nurse-staffing plans and ratios, organizations can move beyond volume- and ratio-driven staffing methods to incorporate acuity, time of day and patient flow into scheduling decisions. Nurse Executive Solutions help significantly reduce under-scheduling, which undermines quality, and over-scheduling which increases cost without adding value. Nurse managers have easy access to information that enables them to anticipate patient needs days in advance, assign the most appropriately skilled nurses and significantly reduce costs associated with overtime and agency-assigned nurses. Patients receive care from nurses with the specific skill sets and qualifications needed to effectively treat their condition and severity while the organization uses its nursing resources most optimally.
Eclipsys Nurse Executive Solutions include Sunrise Demand Manager™, Sunrise Staff Manager™, both powered by AtStaff, and Sunrise Patient Acuity. These solutions calculate patient acuity, develop staffing standards by skill level, measure and report quality effectiveness, and compare benchmarking with the National Comparative Data Base. Nurse executives can measure day-to-day patient care delivery and its cost. Hospital leaders can use the validated data to measure the progress of enterprise initiatives to comply with Joint Commission accreditation standards, state and federal regulations, and Magnet status criteria.
