Flag unit acuity before your staffing falls behind it

Every hour, WebRun reads the LDR unit's current patient count and acuity flags in PeriGen, checks the ratio against your unit's staffing plan, alerts the charge nurse and nursing supervisor in Teams when the unit is approaching or past its safe ratio, and logs the trend to a running sheet for staffing pattern review.

In short

How do I automatically flag unit acuity before staffing falls behind?

Every hour, WebRun reads the LDR unit's patient count and acuity flags in PeriGen, weighs them against your staffing model, and alerts the charge nurse and nursing supervisor in Teams when the ratio nears your safe threshold. It logs the trend to a Sheet too, and leaves the call-in decision to your supervisor.

  • Rising acuity is flagged an hour ahead instead of discovered mid shift
  • The supervisor gets a specific number, not just a vague warning that the unit is busy
  • A shift-over-shift record makes future staffing patterns visible

Questions, answered

Does it call in extra staff on its own?

No. It only alerts the charge nurse and nursing supervisor with the current ratio and a suggested number of additional nurses. The supervisor decides and makes the actual call-in decision.

How is acuity weighted?

Using your unit's own staffing model, such as active labor, imminent delivery, or a patient on continuous monitoring counting for more than a stable postpartum patient. WebRun applies your rules, not a generic formula.

Does the trend sheet help with future scheduling?

Yes. The shift-over-shift log of acuity and staffing ratios gives your nurse manager real data for building future schedules, not just a same day alert.
