Is ShiftKey safe?
1
Why don't patients respect that doctors have schedules and can't build them around one individual? Someone told me today that they were just going to come at 4 pm instead of 2 pm tomorrow to see the doctor, and when I explained that 4 pm was not available and gave them our next available openings, they said that we have poor customer service... are you kidding?
So I need clarification. I work in the clerical part of the medical field (front desk). I schedule appts, update basic information and verify insurance. The current office im in I feel has me doing things well past my actual job. Refilling meds, telling patients results of labs or other tests. They expect me to know when a patient asks for a refill when they were last seen and if they need scheduled. I feel this is way out of my job expertise and expressed im uncomfortable. Am I wrong?
I took a 6-month hiatus to travel and clear my head, and now recruiters are treating my gap like a criminal record. Every interview feels like an interrogation where I have to justify taking care of my own mental health. They keep asking if my clinical skills stagnated, as if I forgot how to do my job. Has anyone else faced the hiatus penalty, and how do you spin it into a positive?
I guess it's about as safe as these other workplace marketplace platforms out here. Our facility relied on ShiftKey during staffing droughts. I'd recommend using it only if you want to work at long-term and post-acute healthcare facilities.
I’m thinking of doing long-term, the facilities “near me” offer around $40/hr which is double what I’m making now at my facility. It makes me nervous because are they on the brink of closing to be offering that much? Is my mental health more important?
ShiftKey just partnered with OnShift workforce management software to launch schedule automation marketplace integration. The new integration was able to pull off an 83% decrease in unfilled shifts. The new tool is called SAMI.
Are you thinking of using it yourself or are you looking to staff using ShiftKey? I know a peer who prefers to select the shifts and facilities she likes and she loves the flexibility.
For myself, I’ve been at my current facility for two years now and it’s just become too toxic. It just doesn’t seem worth it anymore. I don’t know if worths stepping out of my comfort zone and choosing my own hours.
They have a privacy policy in place and I haven't heard any mishaps happenings. All i have heard is great reviews about Shiftkey
I’ve wondered the same question. They require a lot of tests and credentials that the other apps don’t. So do they have good shifts?
It depends on how you describe good. I’ve gone to facility that I had a great experience and then the other, I was the only nurse in the whole building and couldn’t get ahold of the administrator.
