PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS
VOLUME/CENSUS FORECASTING
Inside Smart Square is the Avantas Predictive Model. This powerful predictive scheduling tool forecasts healthcare staffing needs starting 120 days out from the shift, helping you create better schedules and staffing plans sooner.
Updated weekly, these predictions pass through the staffing matrices (or grids) for each unit/service area, clearly identifying the number of staff scheduled versus the predicted need.
Not every area within a hospital or health system takes the same approach to scheduling shifts. Some do cyclic schedules, self-scheduling, on-call, etc., and some do a combination of strategies. No matter what you do, Smart Square has you covered.

Self-Scheduling: Selection of shifts to build core staff schedules
Pre-Posting: Posting and selection of open shifts requiring manager approval
