The Challenge of Paper

‍

Before adopting Timeero, A Pineywoods relied heavily on paper to track time and mileage. This process was inefficient and costly in terms of time and resources. 

‍

This traditional method was particularly challenging given the diverse and specialized care programs A Pynewoods offers, from managing complex conditions like COPD and Diabetes to facilitating recovery from hip, knee, and shoulder replacement surgeries.

‍

Jennifer LaCorte, the Director of Operations, noted that the pen-and-paper method they were using made things slow and complicated, especially when they needed to share information or make changes. The situation was particularly challenging when multiple individuals needed to access the same paper documents, leading to additional delays.

‍

LaCorte highlighted that the transition to a digital system was primarily motivated by the desire to streamline operations, eliminate the inefficiencies associated with paper use, and save time by avoiding the scenario where everyone had to handle the same physical documents.

A New Era With Timeero

‍

The integration of Timeero into A Pineywoods’ operations marked a significant shift towards greater efficiency.

‍

By transitioning to Timeero for digital time and mileage tracking,  A Pineywoods was able to streamline many of its processes and dramatically cut down on paper usage. 

‍

Pineywoods also uses Timeero to manage its caregivers’ schedules. The caregivers can now electronically receive their schedules and accept or decline open shifts. This is critical for a healthcare agency that provides specialized care tailored to each patient's unique needs.

‍

Additionally, Timeero’s reporting feature has proved invaluable, improving their ability to effectively oversee and manage care delivery.

‍

“Reports have been very useful. And then for the supervisors, when they can pull up reports by group, they can evaluate their own team.” Rhonda Pyle shared.

‍

Using Timeero, A Pineywoods has simplified its time tracking, mileage tracking, scheduling, and reporting all in one place. Streamlining the workflow with Timeero has greatly supported its mission to help people live healthier and more independent lives with dignity in the comfort of their homes.
