Solving the Staffing Challenge in Nursing Homes

from The Nursing Home Podcast Hosted by Tony Braswell, Shmuel Septimus

Tony Braswell is a veteran in this space and has been in the Nursing Home staffing industry for 29 years. Most of that time was spent on the excruciatingly slow task of calling up nurses one at a time trying to get them to come to work. This tedious process needed to be faster. Much faster. A brainwave hit Braswell one day when his son purchased just a single bottle of ketchup from Amazon. He realized that with the scope and advancement of modern technology, nursing home staffing could be automated and accomplished much more quickly and efficiently. The Gale App’s method of flexible scheduling is key in a country already short 1,000,000 nurses and losing more every day from burnout. The strict schedules, bi-weekly paydays, and exhausting last minute double-shifts of the past don’t work anymore. It's time for facilities to adapt to the changing demands of the senior care industry. Over 20,088 nurses have already signed on with the Gale App, and, as the U.S. is rapidly developing into a gig-economy, the technology is set to become a serious contender in the nursing staffing sphere.
