“Residency Programs include multiple rotations and on-call requirements which can make scheduling complex,” said Justin Wampach, Vice President, Scheduling Division, TigerConnect. “After collaborating with leading academic medical centers nationwide, TigerConnect has delivered a solution that vastly simplifies how schedules and rotations are created, shared, and modified. Chief residents, residents, and care teams will benefit from the ability to see schedules and request changes from anywhere on any device.”

With customizable block scheduling capabilities, chief residents can decide which model of rotations, inpatient or outpatient, is right for their residents.

“We needed a new platform to help modernize our resident scheduling, as it typically has taken us more than 100 hours to create these schedules each year,” said Michael J. Davis, MD, Hospitalist and Director of Inpatient Systems for the Department of Medicine at Tufts Medical Center. “Having the ability to cleanly visualize complex schedules across residents and rotations makes it much easier to ensure requirements are met. And the added benefits of secure texting and physician scheduling enable our care teams to see who’s on-call and communicate with them instantly for improved patient care.”
