    This webinar – scheduled for September 22, 2026, at 1 pm ET (12 pm CT, 11 am MT, 10 am PT) – is eligible for ACMPE and CEU credit, and will be made available as a recording.

    At Mount Graham Regional Medical Center, the emergency services department spent roughly 20 hours each month building and managing staff schedules, relying on emails, text messages, and spreadsheets to keep track of requests, changes, and staffing needs.

    Join Kyle Lines, RN, CEN, CPEN, Director of Emergency Services at Mount Graham Regional Medical Center, for a fireside chat on how his team changed its scheduling process to reduce administrative time down to four hours each month, while making it easier for staff to view schedules, swap shifts, and pick up open shifts.

    Kyle will discuss what prompted the change, lessons learned along the way, and the impact on both leaders and staff. He'll also share how early results sparked interest from physicians and other departments looking to improve their own scheduling processes.

    Kyle will be joined by Harris Sharif, Vice President of Customer Solution Architecture at QGenda, for a conversation about common scheduling challenges and practical ideas healthcare leaders can apply in their own organizations.

    This 60-minute webinar will provide you with the knowledge to:

    • Recognize common scheduling challenges in a 24/7 healthcare environment
    • Describe approaches to improving schedule visibility and workforce flexibility
    • Discuss lessons learned from moving away from manual scheduling processes
