NurseGrid Manager vs ShiftWise Flex

Nursegrid Manager is a scheduling and coordination service for care teams. Managers can create, manage, and share schedules, then review and respond to shift changes in real time. Staff use the Nursegrid mobile app to choose shifts, coordinate with colleagues, and receive updates; visible gaps can be picked up as open shifts. The product is intended for teams of 2 to 250, including critical access hospitals, hospital departments, surgery centers, and clinics. It supports full-time, part-time, PRN, and contract staff. Integration with the Nursegrid mobile app supports schedule notifications, self-scheduling, and selection of open shifts. Nursegrid Manager is available on Android, iOS, and the web. The listed plan costs $5 a month, billed monthly per staff member, and a free 30-day trial is offered. Sign-up and login use hStream ID. Nursegrid says its services are provided by HealthStream, Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliates. The product page offers live chat and a contact form for questions and sales inquiries.
