Full Slate, online appointment scheduling solutions provider, announced today the release of its "Smart Scheduling" capabilities, decreasing appointment gaps created by client scheduling.  When small businesses schedule appointments themselves, they create work blocks to minimize down time.  With the advancements of Software-as-a-Service, companies like Full Slate have provided online capabilities for client self-booking.  Self-booking cuts down on time and costs associated with scheduling, like hiring a receptionist.  The problem is, clients will schedule a time that works best for their schedule, but is not optimized for the small business.  With "Smart Scheduling", Full Slate customers can minimize this issue.

Kaiser Permanente, one of the nation’s leading healthcare providers, has chosen ScheduleAnywhere to schedule one of its regional network of nurses and medical staff. Kaiser Permanente Santa Rosa Medical Center will use ScheduleAnywhere to manage the day-to-day work schedules of physicians, nurses, and staff, plus gain real-time visibility of schedules and staffing needs for their facilities throughout the Santa Rosa, CA area.

Scheduling Nurses Online ScheduleAnywhere provides Kaiser Santa Rosa with the tools necessary to ensure proper schedule coverage for its nurses and other medical staff, while tracking their time off, availability, and skills and certifications. Managers, along with the Santa Rosa staffing office, can determine staffing requirements, instantly see coverage gaps, identify available employees, and fill these gaps proactively and better control overtime costs. ScheduleAnywhere also automatically handles shift rotations, which reduces the amount of time nurse managers spend scheduling.
