Saved $500K in 9 Months and Retained 18% Nurses Permanently

LCMC Health faced staffing challenges across its eight hospitals in Louisiana. West Jefferson Medical Center needed a way to build a flexible workforce while controlling labor costs. The team also wanted to reduce reliance on travel nurses. They needed to strengthen nurse engagement without compromising patient care. LCMC Health implemented an on-demand staffing approach beginning in January 2024, starting with West Jefferson Medical Center. The program connected the hospital with local, credentialed W-2 nurses. Leadership used on-demand labor to create a flexible local workforce. The approach also enabled transitions from on-demand roles into full-time positions without paying buyout fees. In the first 9 months, the hospital saved $500K in labor. It converted 18% of on-demand nurses to permanent staff. Each nurse worked an average of 5 shifts per month. The hospital transitioned nurses into full-time roles with zero buyout fees while reducing reliance on travel nurses.
