Parkland RHA ‘Live’ with Quadrant HR Staff Scheduling

Gilbert Plains Health Centre, Grandview Personal Care Home and Grandview District Hospital, three facilities located in the Parkland Regional Health Authority (Parkland RHA), went ‘live’ with Quadrant HR’s Staff Scheduling module in December, 2008.

Since March 2003, Parkland RHA has been using Quadrant HR’s Payroll and Human Resources modules to administer and pay their workforce of 2,000. This is the first phase of the Staff Scheduling implementation with eventual use region-wide. Community Health Services and the Roblin Hospital will complete implementation this January and February respectively. The next phase will include the Swan facilities, followed by the Dauphin Regional health Centre.

Brenda Murray, Regional Payroll Manager and QHR System Administrator at Parkland says “We are pleased that we have successfully completed the first stage of implementing Quadrant HR Staff Scheduling. This will replace existing manual paper-based scheduling processes and other third-party systems. We anticipate that the region-wide implementation will assist us in developing consistent practices that will help us to be more efficient and cost-effective.”

Implementation of Staff Scheduling will also help Parkland to realize the full benefits of seamless integration with Quadrant HR’s Payroll and Human Resources modules. Manual processes and interfaces to third-party systems will no longer be required.

QHR is pleased to have Parkland as a long-standing client and ongoing supporter of our organization and solutions.
