Life Care Services Adopts Oracle HCM Cloud

Leading senior living community provider uses cloud technology to reduce HR administrative work

Redwood Shores, Calif.—Apr 11, 2017

Oracle announced today, that Life Care Services (LCS) has chosen Oracle Human Capital Management (HCM) Cloud to help reduce the amount of time on administrative work such as tracking project plans and milestones or updating employee records, all while ensuring more efficient business practices in its HR and Payroll Departments. Oracle HCM Cloud will help LCS bring together integrated solutions for payroll, benefits and employee management and LCS expects to go live on Oracle HCM Cloud in the months ahead.

LCS is working to eliminate standalone systems and forms that are currently not integrated on a single platform. With Oracle HCM Cloud, all employee data and processes will be held on one single electronic system, offering easy access to employee records and effortless accessibility to reporting. The advanced data analytics delivered by Oracle HCM Cloud will also help LCS to gain a better understanding of employee turnover rates and how to best retain top talent.

“We have over 140 communities and managing payroll was becoming inefficient and labor intensive. We knew we wanted to get on one fully-integrated system to produce timely reports and help find the best talent for our team,” said Lisa Ryan, director of human resources at Life Care Services. “With Oracle HCM Cloud, we hope to vastly improve the employee experience. Employees will now be able to instantly access updated report records and information when and where they want it. Time that we previously used for routine HR tasks will now be dedicated to providing more personalized attention to the needs of our employees and the senior living communities we manage.”

“At Oracle, we recognize moving to the cloud can be a significant undertaking. This is why we don’t just provide the technology platform, but also a community of support to help our customers make this transition. This helps our customers realize the incredible efficiencies gained for not just their business, but also for their employees. We are excited to see these business transactions take form for LCS as it rolls out the implementation,” said Gretchen Alarcon, group vice president, HCM Product Strategy at Oracle.

“At LCS, we take comfort knowing that the Oracle HCM Cloud platform is robust and secure. This made it easier for us to educate our internal stakeholders about the tremendous value this technology provides,” adds Ryan.
