Meet Swift: The First AI Scheduling Assistant For Health Care Systems.
Swift is an AI bot that performs complex scheduling & shift-fill (recruitment) tasks so Nurse Managers can spend more time with patients & care teams.

Work-Arounds
Todays scheduling systems require users to click-through a mind numbing amount of drop-down menus to perform even basic tasks. As a result, nurses and nurse managers use manual work-arounds (including excel sheets and, yes, pen & paper) to perform tasks.
Bottlenecks
Nurse Managers are innundated with SMS texts, emails and office “drop-ins’ by nurses asking for schedule changes or sharing personal updates. They then have to record, research, validate, and execute these requests. Every day, across the entire unit.
Support Centers
Large health care systems routinely staff 24/7 support centers that work with hospital leaders to forecast shortages, ensure staffing ratios are met, manage call outs, and generate reports. If scheduling software did its job, these (expensive) divisions would not be necessary.
The cost of inefficiency.
When scheduling systems can't source internal shift coverage, staffing agencices are used, costing 200% or more than staff RNs. That's why most large health systems operate (24/7, expensive) support centers to recruit internal resources to cover shifts. Meanwhile, about 18% of RNs leave their job each year citing work-life balance (schedules) as a main reason, costing health systems an average of $56,300 to replace each RN.

"Hey Swift, I can't work tonight...help!
Nurses add Swift's mobile number to their smartphone contacts and include it in single or group text/chats (no app download!). The Swift bot is also available within customer web applications via SSO integration.
When nurses need help, they just type or say "Hey Swift' and the Swift bot sources & executes swaps, flags conflicts between work & personal schedules, recommends best-fit schedules, balances schedules for nurse managers...and more!
Swift works alongside and connects to any scheduling system but it's not a scheduling system itself.
Swift talks with nurses through a Chat GPT interface that connects to proprietary machine learning models (that are connected to customer workforce data). This lets Swift validate, execute and record transactions in any scheduling system in near real-time.
Swift is HIPAA compliant & secure.
