Smartlinx overview

What is Smartlinx?

Smartlinx is the only workforce management platform purpose-built for the long-term care, post-acute care, senior care, and behavioral health industries. Reduce overtime and increase efficiency by connecting real-time data and processes across multiple facilities so you can visualize staffing, control labor costs, predict Five-Star Ratings, and deliver quality care.

Using Smartlinx's schedule optimizer, businesses can create employees' work schedules, predict overtime shifts, and inform relevant staff members about replacement needs via text messages. The Smartlinx Go mobile application lets staff members receive alerts about open shifts, schedule changes, and request approvals via texts, emails, or push notifications. The powerful mobile app also enables your employees to swap shifts on-the-go and administrators to edit timecards and track employees' overtime, absence, and punch-in/out timings.

No other workforce management solution does scheduling optimization, time and attendance tracking, and PBJ reporting quite like Smartlinx. Create ideal schedules, predict overtime, ensure your facilities are fully staffed.
