Foundation Health Partners Deploys in the Kronos Cloud
Foundation Health Partners, operator of the Greater Fairbanks Community
Hospital, needed to swiftly implement a workforce management solution
following its divestiture from Banner Health. Foundation Health turned
to Kronos
Incorporated to quickly deploy its Workforce
Central suite of solutions in the Kronos (News - Alert) Cloud, while maintaining
workforce productivity during the transition phase.
News Facts
-
Along with all employees at the Greater Fairbanks Community Hospital,
Kronos is also used by all employees across the other two facilities
operated by the Foundation Health Partners - the Denali Center, a
long-term care facility and the Tanana Valley Clinic.
-
Foundation Health Partners selected Kronos time and attendance,
employee scheduling, and workforce analytics solutions, as well as the
Kronos Attestation Tool Kit.
-
With schedules that take into consideration employee availability and
preferences while aligning staff with the right skills and
certifications for specific shifts, Kronos helps drive both employee
and patient satisfaction.
-
The Kronos Attestation Tool Kit provides a simple way for managers,
employees, and leadership to be engaged in the timecard review and
documentation process. The solution allows users to review, approve,
and reject timecards by using various Kronos data collection devices
including time clocks, mobile and tablet applications, and web
platforms. As employees can attest to changes in their own timecards
and make revisions themselves before the timecard is approved, the
solution further helps empower employees.
-
The analytics application is expected to help set important goals for
all departments over time and improve overall staffing strategies.
-
Ultimately, the integrated Kronos solution helps deliver quality care
while retaining productive, satisfied employees. Also by deploying in
the Kronos Cloud, Foundation Health Partners allows Kronos to perform
all configuration, maintenance, upgrades, and support of the workforce
management solution, enabling its IT department to focus resources on
patient services.

Tammy Johnson, business management consultant, member of the Kronos
Work Team, Foundation Health Partners
"Already intimately
familiar with Kronos and aware of the solution's strength, we knew
that we would implement Kronos with the transition of ownership. The
Kronos implementatin team also provided exceptional support during
this time. As a result, Kronos was one less thing we needed to worry
about at a time of change and there was no disruption when it came to
important workforce-related processes. We couldn't have achieved this
feat without the superior Kronos solution and the Kronos
implementation team."

Health Partners' biggest priorities are taking care of patients and
the overall well-being of the community and these factors are central
to the foundation's decisions. When the organization needed quick and
efficient service, we knew we had to deliver superior results. We are
confident that the facilities that the foundation operates will
continue to use Kronos in a way that best serves its patients,
employees, and the community."
