Case Study: North Mississippi Health Services improves RN retention and saves $1.5M with Laudio

Improved RN retention by 3% and saved $1.5M in only 9 months

North Mississippi Health Services (NMHS), a large rural nonprofit health system, faced significant challenges with nurse retention, experiencing 35% RN turnover within the first year of employment. Their legacy systems were strained by growth and created a burdensome administrative workload for nurse managers, which lowered productivity and hindered engagement efforts. To address this, NMHS partnered with the vendor Laudio for an advanced HR solution.

Laudio’s platform provided an AI-powered dashboard that streamlined workflows, automated task reminders, and delivered insights to help managers improve staff recognition and communication. This solution led to a 3.4% improvement in RN retention for the strongest users within just nine months, resulting in an estimated $1.5 million in recruitment savings for NMHS. Based on these results, the organization expanded Laudio’s access to 100% of its workforce.
