Why RES-Q

Hospitals face daunting challenges. Heightened demands to uphold and improve patient safety and the quality of care, greater competition for patients, ever-increasing costs for labor and medical technology, rising levels of patient acuity, reimbursement constraints and narrowing operating margins. These issues are hitting hospitals hard right in the middle of an industry-wide shortage of nurses and other skilled healthcare professionals.

Ineffective management of labor, every hospital’s most valuable resource, intensifies all these problems. That’s why a solid scheduling system is an essential element for success.

RES-Q^® Labor Resource Management efficiently produces clinically sound, skill-matched, and financially prudent and productive staffing in responsive, fair and equitable schedules that boost employee morale. And it delivers measurable benefits: faster scheduling with less time required to set schedules and prepare reports, reduced overtime, decreased use of costly outside agency staff, greater consistency in the application of equitable scheduling rules, and improved employee satisfaction and retention.

Yes. RES-Q delivers the results hospitals need. But there are even more important reasons to choose RES-Q.

Over the years, so many healthcare software vendors have come and gone. RES-Q Healthcare Systems has stood the test of time. Since 1979, with a singular commitment, we have pursued one mission: advancing scheduling software for hospitals. As a privately held company, with zero debt, we have no investors or shareholders to appease, and we do not have to make short-term, and short-sighted, decisions just to impress analysts on Wall Street. We are responsible and responsive to one, and only one, set of stakeholders: our hospital customers on Main Street.

Our senior people responsible for developing, maintaining, installing and supporting our software have been with RES-Q for an average of 15 years. Hospital executives and managers can rely on us today, tomorrow and over the years ahead.

RES-Q is not the biggest vendor, just the best. We help hospitals use our software to efficiently produce optimal schedules that balance dollars and staff resources. And we do even more. With decades of front-line experience in hospital management, we help our customers use the data from RES-Q strategically to identify, analyze and solve problems.
