Get the most from your EVS budget

We'll equip you to get the most from your budget, the best from your people, and heightened satisfaction among patients and customers.

Develop Accurate Staffing Models

The ES Opti­miz­er staffing method­ol­o­gy includes room inven­to­ry tech­nol­o­gy, along with all the real-world vari­ables (lock-ins, patient turnover acu­ity, waste removal, etc.) to cal­cu­late the cor­rect num­ber of EVS staff required.

Establish Standards & Procedures

When work is stan­dard­ized and doc­u­ment­ed in an easy-to-man­age for­mat, you can com­mu­ni­cate your expec­ta­tions, be cer­tain your team knows what to do, and mea­sure progress. ES Opti­miz­er allows con­sis­tent clean­ing stan­dards with clean­ing times that are applied across the board.

Respond Flexibly to Budgetary Changes

Com­pa­ny resources are nev­er sta­t­ic. The needs of your cus­tomers change often, and you must be ready to respond. ES Opti­miz­er allows you to stay flex­i­ble. Run­ning “What If” sce­nar­ios enables you to quick­ly assess a vari­ety of ser­vice options. You can eas­i­ly demon­strate the ser­vice impli­ca­tions of any pro­posed cost reduc­tion.

Create a Solid Work Plan

Create Balanced Work Assignments

Equi­table work assign­ments are essen­tial to employ­ee pro­duc­tiv­i­ty and morale. With the right bal­ance, you can cov­er all areas and keep employ­ees moti­vat­ed. As you build work assign­ments in ES Opti­miz­er, it cal­cu­lates the total clean­ing time as you add rooms, mak­ing it easy to assess prac­ti­cal­i­ty and fair­ness of each assign­ment.

When employ­ees feel they are treat­ed fair­ly, every­one ben­e­fits. ES Opti­miz­er makes it sim­ple.

Ensure All Assignments Are Consistently Covered

Unex­pect­ed absences are a prob­lem for any ser­vice depart­ment. For­tu­nate­ly, they can be man­aged. ES Opti­miz­er lets you set up a tem­plate to make sched­ul­ing easy. You’ll have a sys­tem in place to cov­er sud­den absences, includ­ing the abil­i­ty to make Short Staff Assign­ments. And you’ll reduce the time it takes to main­tain this key com­po­nent of your oper­a­tion.

Improve Project Work with Proactive Scheduling

ES Opti­miz­er orga­nizes project clean­ing and keeps you on top of it. You’ll avoid cus­tomer dis­sat­is­fac­tion and take the “cri­sis man­age­ment” out of project work. You’ll also sup­port your employ­ees with a clear plan for keep­ing up with peri­od­ic duties. When your employ­ees can con­cen­trate on the job at hand, they are less frus­trat­ed and more pro­duc­tive.

Best of all, ES Opti­miz­er frees your man­agers to devote more atten­tion to inter­nal cus­tomers and employ­ee train­ing.

Improve Performance and Report Results

Quality Management

ES Optimizer’s mobile app lets you inspect work assign­ments, col­lect data via mobile device, and com­pile the find­ings to give you an accu­rate pic­ture of your qual­i­ty per­for­mance. Qual­i­ty Man­age­ment is made easy with ES Opti­miz­er Mobile.

Reporting

When it’s time to account for your envi­ron­men­tal ser­vices depart­ment per­for­mance, the num­bers are a few sim­ple key­strokes away. Choose from hun­dreds of report­ing options or request your own cus­tom reports.
