Healthcare Transformations fail when your workforce isn't aligned

Strategic Advisor bridging finance, operations, and workforce for real-world results
Let's TalkCase Study

Too many healthcare transformations fail — not because of strategy, but becasue of silos

  • Finance pushes budgets down. Operations scramble to make the numbers work.

  • Workforce pays the price. Burnout, turnover, and hidden costs quietly erode stability.

  • Transformations stall. What looked solid in the boardroom collapses in execution.

When workforce, finance, and operations aren’t aligned, failure is inevitable.

I bridge the silos that derail transformation

As a Strategic Advisor – Healthcare Business Transformation, I partner with:

  • Healthcare executives who need transformation to deliver measurable ROI.

  • Consulting firms who can’t afford a project to fail in front of their clients.

    Uncover Hidden Cost Drivers

    behind burnout and instability.

    Align Finance, Operations, and Workforce

    for real-world execution.

    Ensure Transformation Delivers

    not just on paper, but at the bedside and the bottom line.

    Real Results. Not Surface Fixes.

    Challenge: CFOs across 25+ hospitals weren’t using the organization’s productivity report — it took 25+ hours to prepare, and the metrics weren’t actionable.

    Approach: I partnered with CFOs to identify hidden reporting pain points, redesigned metrics to reflect real operational needs, and automated the process.

    Impact:

    96% time savings (25+ hours → 1 hour).

    100% adoption of redesigned reports by CFOs.

    Estimated 98% cost savings (from $74,144 to $1,040 annually).

    “Transformation works when finance and operations speak the same language.”

    Real Results. Not Surface Fixes.

    Challenge: A critical IT system rollout was projected to take two years using a long-standing methodology. Leadership accepted this as standard.

    Approach: I identified inefficiencies in the data acquisition process, created a streamlined template, and initiated infrastructure build while data was still being gathered.

    Impact:

    Timeline cut in half (2 years → 1 year).

    Long-standing 20-year methodology modernized.

    Transformation benefits realized 12 months sooner.

    “Efficiency isn’t about cutting corners — it’s about removing bottlenecks.”

    Real Results. Not Surface Fixes.

    Challenge: Nursing units relied on outdated metrics that ignored real-time patient activity, creating frustration on the front lines and mistrust in boardroom staffing decisions.

    Approach: I redesigned the staffing tool to capture live admissions, discharges, transfers, and acuity changes, automated processes, and framed it as a voice for nursing in executive discussions.

    Impact:

    Adopted by 15 of 16 nursing units.

    Rebuilt workforce trust in productivity data.

    Gave executives more accurate visibility into staffing needs.

    “When frontline voices are heard, executive decisions improve.”

    Meet Brigid Jones, your healthcare transformation partner

    MESSAGE FROM THE FOUNDER:

    I’ve spent my career on both sides of the table: first as a frontline clinician, then as an operations consultant. That dual perspective means I don’t just understand transformation in theory — I’ve lived it, from the bedside to the boardroom.

    Too often, healthcare change fails because finance, operations, and the workforce aren’t aligned. My role as a Strategic Advisor is to bridge those silos, uncover hidden cost drivers, and ensure transformation delivers measurable results.

    What sets me apart is more than expertise — it’s experience. I’ve led projects that cut reporting time by 96%, halved system implementation timelines, and rebuilt workforce tools so leaders could trust their data and frontline teams could trust their leaders.

    My commitment is simple: practical, actionable strategies that work in the real world. When the stakes are high, I partner with executives and consulting firms to ensure transformation doesn’t collapse in silos — but drives stability, savings, and sustainable change.
