Retain healthcare talent with smart onboarding
Demand for care is rising, but staff are scarce. Our onboarding platform ensures a fast start and early engagement from day one. The result? Less early attrition, reduced red tape, and an employer brand that healthcare professionals want to work for.















Less paperwork, more time for care
Save hours of administrative work by automating your processes in a single central hub. It directly reduces the workload for HR and your teams:
- Personalize the experience: deliver the right info to the right people, tailored to their role and location.
- Give managers the tools they need with a clear new hire overview, checklists & timely reminders.
- Automate repetitive tasks and eliminate manual errors to free up hands for care

Boost retention by 82% with strong onboarding
Turnover in healthcare is high, especially in the first two years. Use Appical to build a bond with new talent the moment the contract is signed:
- Break the radio silence: Fill the "silent weeks" before the start date with interactive, personal preboarding.
- Foster belonging: Make new hires feel part of your mission before they even step onto the floor.
- Consistent experience: Ensure a great start doesn't depend on who they run into on day one.

- Bite-sized learning: Break down complex instructions into manageable steps.
- Stay on track: Use automated reminders so everyone knows exactly what to do.
- Reduce team pressure: Get new staff up to speed quickly to provide immediate relief to the rest of the team.

FAQ's
Many HR professionals ask for our help building a business case to convince their leadership or management team. We’ve got you covered! With our ROI calculator, you can easily visualize how many hours (and dollars) are currently leaking away through manual onboarding and paperwork. When you factor in the sky-high costs of early turnover, the investment usually pays for itself much faster than you’d expect. Plus, we’ll help you track key KPIs from the moment you go live.
Absolutely! We know healthcare professionals aren't looking for thick manuals or 14 separate emails full of protocols. During a demo, we’ll show you exactly how other organizations are doing it. Think short welcome videos from the local manager, bite-sized information (that unlocks at the right moment) or simple quizzes (gamification) instead of another wall of text. It makes the information digestible, fun, and ensures the most important knowledge actually sticks before day one.
The last thing you want is another "siloed" system that doesn't talk to anything else. Appical integrates seamlessly with the tools you already use, such as Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, or your specific LMS. Once a new hire signs their contract digitally in your HR system, they automatically receive an invite to their personalized Appical journey, tailored specifically to their role and location. No more double data entry for HR!
Setting up your ideal onboarding takes a bit of focus at the start, but you won't have to do it alone. We provide ready-to-use blueprints to get you moving quickly and help you with designing the journey. In the long run, you’ll save massive amounts of time by eliminating repetitive manual tasks. Managers & HR-departments no longer have to start from scratch for every new hire. Because the fundamentals are automated, you create room for what really matters: genuine, personal attention on the work floor.
Many HR professionals worry that staff will feel overwhelmed by 'yet another app or password. Rest assured, Appical is designed for maximum ease of use. A fact frequently praised by the many healthcare organizations we partner with.
Since preboarding starts before the first day, most employees simply use the app on their personal smartphones. If they prefer not to download an app or use their phone, the entire environment is just as easily accessible via a standard web browser on a laptop or computer.
Great question! Since they haven't officially started yet, you can't make it mandatory. However, we see the opposite happening: new hires are in a "honeymoon phase”. They are genuinely excited and curious about their new workplace. By keeping the preboarding light on heavy protocols and high on interactive content (like videos and welcome messages), it doesn't feel like "work".
