What is long-term care & skilled nursing scheduling and time tracking software?

Employee scheduling and time and attendance software helps long-term care & skilled nursing facilities ditch paper and whiteboards for an easy, digital way to build schedules, manage shift changes, and record hours worked. Staff can see their shifts, swap when needed, and clock in from their phone, while supervisors get time back and accurate, real-time records for payroll and compliance.

How will software change my day-to-day work?

Supervisors aren’t stuck chasing callouts, fixing timecards, or answering questions like “when am I working?” With schedules, hours, and compliance handled in one system, your day opens up to focus on residents and staff instead of paperwork.

How does software support compliance in care settings?

Software makes sure every shift is filled with the right licensed staff. It tracks credentials, flags conflicts or expirations, and applies rules like breaks, overtime, and max shift length automatically. That way, care teams stay compliant without constant manual checks. 

Can I connect with my other systems?

Yes. Your scheduling and time data can flow directly into payroll and HR systems, so you avoid double entry and reduce errors.

What does it take to get up and running? 

Getting started is simple. Some facilities can import their staff list, set up positions and shifts, and build their first schedule in just a few hours. Staff download the mobile app to see their shifts right away. The timeline really depends on how complex your rules and processes are. Either way, our team is ready to help whether you need quick answers or prefer full white-glove setup and onboarding.
