Shift Scheduling & Sick-Call Automation for Long-Term Care Teams
Every shift covered. No manual scramble. Built for long-term care staffing reality.
When someone calls in sick, care still has to continue.
Every missed shift has a cost. Coverage gaps increase risk, agency spending, and stress across your team.
Yet most homes still depend on group texts, phone chains, and manual scrambling to stay staffed.
Shiftn handles the sick call, sends the offers, and updates the schedule before anyone has time to panic.
Why Long-Term Care Teams Choose Shiftn
Staffing in long-term care is not just a scheduling challenge. It affects resident safety, regulatory compliance, staff burnout, and agency spending.
Most scheduling tools only move the spreadsheet. Shiftn removes the panic and keeps every unit covered without the scramble.

How Shiftn Works in Long-Term Care
Shiftn does not replace your schedule. It makes it self-maintaining. Sick calls, shift offers, and coverage updates all happen automatically in the background without waking up your staffing coordinator at the crack of dawn.
Here is what automated calm looks like in real life:
1️⃣ An employee texts “I’m sick.”
Shiftn logs it instantly, marks them unavailable, and triggers coverage outreach.
2️⃣ Eligible staff receive a targeted offer.
Only qualified and available staff receive the message. No reply-all chaos.
3️⃣ The first “YES” wins the shift.
Shiftn assigns coverage automatically and prevents double booking.
4️⃣ Your schedule updates itself.
Coverage is confirmed. No phone tag. No manual cleanup.
5️⃣ The result:
Every unit stays covered even when plans change. Nobody scrambles. Nobody hopes for luck.
Calm starts with one conversation.
