When combined with symplr’s existing workforce management solutions and credentialing capabilities, the combined end-to-end Patient Centered Workforce® solution aims to make it easier for healthcare organizations to hire, keep, optimize, and grow their workforce.

symplr Talent Management Solutions (formerly HealthcareSource)

symplr states they recognize how recruiters, hiring managers, learning and development professionals, and compensation specialists must work together to hire and develop high-performing teams and leaders in healthcare. symplr Talent supports the following initiatives:

Talent Acquisition

  • Create a high-performance culture through ongoing coaching, feedback, and professional development.

HealthcareSource offers a suite of software products that cater to the needs of healthcare organizations. One of their prominent offerings is the Position Manager, which is utilized for job requisitions and applicant tracking across the organization. Users have found this tool to be effective in streamlining the hiring process and centralizing all applicants from various locations. The software has been described as user-friendly and has proven to be an invaluable resource for HR teams in managing in-house vacancies. Employees also benefit from the Position Manager by being able to easily apply for vacancies and share application links with others.

Another key use case is the Performance Manager, which facilitates leadership and staff common review date appraisals. This tool has positively impacted employee involvement in appraisals, goal setting, and communication with supervisors. It enables a more structured and efficient approach to performance reviews, enhancing overall employee management within the organization. Furthermore, HealthcareSource's NetLearning platform serves as a core Learning Management System for education compliance and documenting completion of training and certifications. All employees utilize this e-learning platform to stay updated on organizational policies and procedures, ensuring compliance standards are met throughout the healthcare organization.

Lastly, HealthcareSource serves as a recruitment tool in the HR department, aiding them in attracting top talent. The software's applicant tracking capabilities have received positive feedback from users who find it effective for managing the entire recruiting process, from application submission to hiring. Additionally, it acts as a central repository for applicants across all locations, creating a more coherent and organized approach to recruitment.

In summary, HealthcareSource's suite of software products provides valuable solutions for HR teams and employees alike in healthcare organizations. The Position Manager simplifies applicant tracking and facilitates internal hiring processes, while the Performance Manager improves performance appraisal procedures and enhances employee engagement. NetLearning ensures education compliance and keeps employees up-to-date with organizational policies. Overall, these tools contribute to streamlining operations and improving efficiency within healthcare organizations.

Strong Integration with HRIS System: Several users have praised the integration and file feeds between HealthcareSource's products and their core HRIS system, Lawson. This feature has been stated as a significant strength that saves organizations with a large number of employees a significant amount of time.

User-Friendly Interface: Many reviewers have appreciated the user-friendly and intuitive interface of HealthcareSource's software. They have found it easy to use with minimal training, and training documents available on the HR Intranet site have proven effective for new employees.

Robust Reporting Capabilities: Both Performance Manager and Position Manager have met users' reporting needs. Performance Manager offers a custom reporting interface that allows users to create reports as needed, while Position Manager provides many built-in reports along with the option for custom reports.

Slow communication with support team: Some users have reported that the communication with the support team is slow, especially when it needs to move to a higher tier.

Lack of advanced notice for system updates: Several reviewers have expressed their dissatisfaction with the company's practice of providing release notes only 1-2 days before the system is updated. They suggest that it would be more beneficial to receive these notes a few weeks in advance.

Limited custom reporting and database access: A number of users have mentioned their desire for full custom reporting capability and full read-only database access. They feel that having these features would allow them to combine the software's data with their HRIS data in one report.

Position Manager is being used throughout the organization for the whole recruiting process. Our applicant submits an application online. The application gets to the recruiters end on PM any application/interview updates/ notes/ assignments etc are entered on that application. Hiring managers have access to post jobs etc
  • keeping track of applicants
  • navigation
  • access to resume, CV, etc is easy
  • navigation; not always user friendly or insightful
For recruiters and hiring managers, HealthcareSource Position Manager is best, especially when they have a lot of applicants. They can take a quick look at the little number that ranges from 0 - 100 telling them how much this person's experience relates to the position in question
  • tracking applicants
  • extracting info for salaries, referral bonuses, sign on bonuses

It is used only in admin and HR. We use it for in house vacancies that can be applied for easily as well as having employees share the links to apply with people they know. It streamlines the hiring process, applying process, employee management, and employee reviews. Of course, the e-learning is used by all employees and keeps them up to date on necessary policies and procedures in the organization.
  • User tracking of e-learning
  • HR tracking of user e-learning
  • Easy to use interface
  • Intuitive design
  • Integration to a mobile app that all employees could use would be great
  • Additional color schemes would be neat
It really is the best solution to any organization that needs to provide and track employees continued learning or learning of policies and procedures. The tracking is great on all ends. The interface is simple and easy to navigate. It may not be suitable for an organization with under 10 people as it is quite extensive and may be a bit over the top.

  • It has increased the timeliness of e-learning
  • It has increased the completion of e-learning
  • It has minimized the amount of time HR spends tracing and reminding employees of their trainings
  • HealthStream Learning & Performance
Both Health Stream and Healthcare Source have to-do lists, completion lists, and tracking. However, the functionality of Healthcare Source is far superior to HealthStream. The notifications are much better and helpful. The tracking on Healthcare Source is easy to use and see. Overall the interface in Healthcare Source is more intuitive.

Position Manager is used across our organization as our applicant tracking system. It houses our applicants into a central place for all of our locations.
  • I feel they do implementation well.
  • They have great vendors they work with.
  • They are reasonably priced.
  • The system needs to be updated. It's simple and easy to use, but it is way outdated.
  • Roll out upgrades frequently and more timely.
  • Need calendar integration, social media integrations, CRM to application.
If an organization is looking for a basic online solution for applicant tracking - this would be good for them.

  • It has done its job of a basic applicant tracking system.
We selected Position Manager years ago because they specialized in Healthcare and the price.
