The reason this review usually takes six weeks.
Most workforce tools arrive with a compliance claim they cannot evidence. We would rather fail your review on the first call than on the fourth.
- A vendor claims to be HIPAA certified, and nobody is.
- A SOC 2 logo turns out to belong to a hosting provider, not the product.
- Nobody can say whether the tool touches patient information, or who decided.
- A unit adopts something free and you hear about it at audit.
What a review of Adelo covers.
It is short because the scope is narrow.
- 09:00
Confirm the scope.
Adelo holds schedules, hours, attendance, credentials, training, staff messages and employee immunization records. Patient information should never be entered, and no BAA is required for the services described.
- 09:20
Review access.
Email and password sign in, three access levels (staff, charge nurse, manager), and units isolated by row level security.
- 09:40
Review what comes in.
An Excel schedule import, a Google Sheet sync, and a signed daily census feed that carries counts only.
- 10:00
Check what comes next.
Sign in is email and password through a managed authentication service. SAML 2.0 single sign on is available for a health system on request. An independent security assessment is next on the roadmap.
What is on the screen: staff and shifts
The charge nurse Ops screen shows pending pickups and swaps, and lets a charge nurse post an open shift. The census it takes is a daily count, and nothing about a patient goes in.

Where Adelo fits in your stack.
Adelo runs beside your systems of record, not in place of them. Keeping its scope narrow is what keeps your review short.
- Adelo can take over scheduling, attendance and timekeeping. Payroll, benefits and core HR records stay in your HCM.
- There is nothing to integrate, and a unit can be live in days.
- Nobody is HIPAA certified, so that badge is not on this site.
