NurseInsight^TM

Gallup has been studying the relationship between people's natural talents and performance in various jobs for more than 30 years. This wealth of experience has enabled us to develop scientific methodology for the development of talent assessments that are predictive of job success.

The need for this kind of methodology is simple -- bad hires cost healthcare organizations time and money. The effects of poor hires on a hospital's overall financial performance include:

• lower personal productivity among disengaged nurses
• disruption to workgroup productivity caused by disengaged nurses
• replacing disengaged nurses and training new nurses
• lost patients, physicians, brand image, and market share

The solution to these problems: Gallup's NurseInsight system.

NurseInsight takes advantage of the latest technology to assist recruiters and managers in making predictive and expedient hiring decisions by providing healthcare organizations with a comprehensive, organization-wide nurse screening assessment and hiring support system.

The following characteristics of NurseInsight work in concert to drive positive business and clinical outcomes for healthcare organizations. NurseInsight:

• widens the nurse recruitment funnel through talent-based sourcing and filters applicants in order to find the best fit
• provides scientifically predictive results on each candidate's talent and "fit to role"
• incorporates training for system users and managers on talent-based selection and technology
• increases the speed and efficiency of the hiring process by accessing results instantaneously
• increases the level of nursing talent and engagement leading to reduced turnover, absenteeism and medical errors, increased patient loyalty, and improved financial performance
