The eHealthcare Leadership Awards program was developed and first presented 12 years ago by eHealthcare Strategy & Trends in an effort to identify and reward those advancing design and development in healthcare.

More than 300 organizations, representing a broad industry spectrum, received recognition for their outstanding websites and digital communications at a special presentation in Orlando on November 9 during the Fifteenth Annual Healthcare Internet Conference. Winners of the 2011 eHealthcare Leadership Awards were selected from nearly 1,200 entries. A total of 114 individuals familiar with healthcare and the Internet judged the entries.

Judges looked at how websites and other digital communications compared with others in their organization’s classification. They also reviewed entries based on a multi-point standard of Internet excellence. The best overall Internet site category, for example, had to pass muster on more than 40 factors.

“Despite the challenging economic environment, organizations have continued to explore and invest in digital communications,” says Mark Gothberg, eHealthcare Leadership Awards chairman. “A significant number of organizations have made major improvements in their websites, expanded involvement in social media, more fully integrated traditional marketing with new media vehicles, and initiated mobile efforts to better serve current and future customers.”

Gothberg notes that improvements in websites were largely focused on enhancing visual interest, perfecting navigation, and showcasing key service lines. Videos, audios, virtual tours, social media tie-ins, and calls-to-action now populate many key service sections.

We’re very honored to receive this award and very thankful to work with such an excellent company like Medical Solutions who provided us with the opportunity in creating such a collaborative and now ‘award winning’ website!

So, who wants to help us win next year? Contact us and let’s get to developing your staffing website!

What about motivating your customer facing sales, staffing, support and recruiting teams? Hoping they’re just happy with their day to day?

Well now there’s a better way! We’re pleased to announce Hively. Hively is the simplest way to gather customer feedback and measure customer satisfaction, while motivating your team members to improve the service they provide.

Hively better connects businesses with their customers by helping them gather ongoing, real time customer feedback in a fun and engaging way.

“Most companies send customer surveys out to gather feedback. But surveys have a low engagement rate because they’re time consuming to create and to complete,” said Jason Lander, Founder and CEO of Staffing Robot. “In addition, survey data is difficult to act upon because it’s aggregated, not real time and rarely (if ever) makes it’s way to the people who need it most – the employees interacting with your customers.”

With Hively, your team members invite customers to give feedback by constantly asking them to rate the service they just received. These feedback requests are sent in every email or after every phone call, sales meeting, webinar, or training your customers receive. Team members get points for the feedback they receive and are ranked amongst their team based on their customer happiness score.

Check out the Hively feature tour here.

By capturing real time customer feedback, Hively helps businesses respond to their customers in a timely manner. Positive comments can be shared publicly as testimonials and negative issues can be addressed immediately. Hively takes only a few minutes to set up and easily integrates with any email client, CRM or ticket tracking system.

“There’s never been a simpler and more effective way to measure customer satisfaction and reward team members for providing exceptional service,” said Lander.

Ready to improve your customer and team happiness? Sign up for Hively today!

June 14th, 2011 (Portland, OR) – Staffing Robot (www.staffingrobotonline.com), a website design and development agency for the healthcare staffing industry, announced the release of a new mobile website for a leading medical staffing company – Medical Solutions. The site is the first of its kind for the healthcare staffing industry.

“As a web development and services company for the healthcare staffing industry, Staffing Robot constantly seeks out innovative clients that are leaders in the space,” said Jason Lander, Founder and Chief Promoter. “We couldn’t have found a better company to partner with for developing the first mobile website in the medical staffing industry than Medical Solutions. They recognized the opportunity to provide their services in a mobile environment and stepped up to the challenge of helping to advance the industry.”

The new mobile website helps Medical Solutions provide their clients and healthcare professionals easy access to the most popular and relevant services of their new website medicalsolutions.com through their mobile devices. The mobile website looks and performs like any phone app found on most smartphones, with the key difference being that it is accessed via the web, not through any specific device or platform. The mobile site provides quick, convenient access to key information such as a newly designed job search and easy nurse application format, educational and testimonial videos, news and announcements, and important information about Medical Solutions.

“Being able to outsource our website development to Staffing Robot has freed us to think more strategically while remaining focused on our day to day objectives,” said Dale Williams, Medical Solutions co-founder. “We needed a company that understood our audience and our industry, and could assist us with the technical challenges of a project this size. I couldn’t be more pleased with our choice to partner with Staffing Robot on this endeavor.”

In addition, Staffing Robot also built a new website for Medical Solutions. A visitor to the site is given either the desktop or the mobile experience based on whether they access the site with a desktop computer or mobile device. The new website puts the voice of the healthcare travelers up front by letting them talk about their experiences of being a travel nurse. Healthcare travelers that want to participate on the site can create an account at medicalsolutions.com or sign up with their Facebook credentials. All visitors can now simply navigate through the site to find helpful information related to their medical profession or client service needs. The newly designed healthcare job search also allows those interested in travel nursing to quickly find interesting assignments in any location and profession they choose.
