Designed to streamline peer reviews and foster professional growth, StaffGarden Peer Feedback/Review enables clinicians to support one another’s development while maintaining accountability.
Empower healthcare teams by facilitating a structured, transparent process for exchanging constructive feedback.
The process begins with each nurse completing a self-assessment that evaluates core competencies, regardless of specialty or practice setting. This self-reflection is an important step toward identifying areas for personal growth.
After completing the reviews, peers meet to discuss the feedback. The platform allows users to access their documented reviews, either by printing or pulling them up on the system. After the meeting, nurses document the date of the feedback session, completing the Peer Feedback process.
While managers can monitor task completion, they do not have access to the contents of peer reviews, ensuring that feedback remains confidential between the assigned nurses. This system helps managers track progress without influencing or interfering with the peer feedback process.
Department managers automatically assign peer partners in a reciprocal review process—if Nurse A reviews Nurse B, then Nurse B reviews Nurse A. Peer reviews are matched by department, job code, and facility to ensure relevant feedback and a balanced workload.
With StaffGarden, Peer Feedback assignments are automatically balanced, ensuring no staff member is overburdened. Reciprocally assigned pairs help create accountability, while workload distribution ensures fair participation.
Nurses are encouraged to reflect on their feedback and establish professional goals for the upcoming year. These goals can be discussed with managers during annual check-ins, aligning personal development with broader organizational objectives.
StaffGarden is capable of integration with any existing SSOs or ERPs within your organization, such as Workday, Oracle, Azure, and more. If you already use a system you don't see here, contact us. We can build an integration for you.
We utilize existing systems to improve clinical data management at hospitals nationwide. This approach eliminates the manual migration of program data across systems, resulting in significant time and effort savings for administrators.
Grow is the only cloud-based, professional development management platform that is purpose-built to manage clinical professional advancement programs.
Roots manages the complete lifecycle of content creation and curation, self-assessment, preceptor assessment, automatic department/job code assignment, and archive support.
ePortfolio provides accessibility for nurses and visibility into the nursing workforce for leadership, all while integrating with existing systems.
In the last year, Inova has seen recruitment increase dramatically to around 850 new grads a year. We’re also seeing reduced turnover at about 2-3% year over year. StaffGarden Grow is one great big package about what the nurse feels that Inova is doing to make it worth their while to stay with us.
My initial thoughts on StaffGarden? This is the one. I saw it and instantly fell in love with the cloud-based system, accessibility from nurses' devices, and customizability.
We have the ability to see at a glance how many nurses are leveling, applying, which nurses have BSNs, certifications, et cetera using the ePortfolio and resume functions within StaffGarden. This data is useful for Magnet reporting since we’re able to show an increase in BSNs, certifications, and points to encourage nurses to fulfill Magnet criteria right on the webpage.
See for yourself how ePortfolio will transform the way your hospital manages competencies.
