When the Schedule Spreadsheet Crashes — Again?
We’ve all experienced the chaos that ensues when an Excel spreadsheet crashes during a critical moment—whether it’s a last-minute shift change, an urgent request from a caregiver, or an unexpected update to a patient’s care plan. What was once a simple tool for organizing schedules quickly becomes a source of frustration and inefficiency.
