HealthStream Jane Reviews & Product Details

It’s very intuitive. It’s easy to assign to nurses and other staff, and the results are easy to read. As long as we explain to the nurses how they should answer using the AI part, they do really well with the content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The one downside for me is the AI portion. We have to make sure we explain to nurses that they need to be very specific when answering the questions. For example, if they write that they want to check labs, it will mark it wrong because it was looking for a CBC specifically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that HealthStream Jane uses learners’ answers to guide them toward an outcome and show where they can improve or where they scored highly. It isn’t a negative assessment, and I like that it gives them a score against the national average and a rationale. They look forward to taking the test or reassessment again, and their scores usually improve after clinical training. I find the assessment a helpful guide for improving clinical judgment. It’s easy to assign and access, and I can look at real-time data and review questions with learners. The interactive AI videos help them troubleshoot during scenarios, and they can apply the case studies to real patient cases. Setup was seamless and easy: I can find students and assign the competency tool, and it was easy to set up with our HealthStream coordinator. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’d like to see more variety in the questions based on state or unit. Some questions aren’t applicable to our population or unit, and some of the nationally based questions are broad. When we reviewed the content, some residents had never heard of certain things before. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Being able to assess my new grads and new hires, and establish a baseline for their knowledge, is very helpful. It truly does support our onboarding Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of the questions are incorrect and/or don’t pertain to the specific areas of practice that some of our staff work in. In these cases, I believe the AI/ Intelligence software does not help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

jane assesses knowledge and clinical judgement in an objective manner, and the ability to review knowledge and clinical judgement results for each caregiver is helpful. The ability to set up the pathways to provide a standard amount of development time by specialty across the organization is ideal to provide equitable assignments across our various hospitals and markets.

It would be helpful if there was a view-only or other type of access for managers or preceptors to view the jane assessment results. Additionally some of the reports could be refined so they could be pulled by individual assessment and location. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The platform is user-friendly, and the initial training provided to learn the site’s functionality was very useful. One of the reasons we chose Jane is that you can see what the user missed, along with the correct answer, so we can review it with them after the assessment.

One of my biggest complaints, as the coordinator for the assessment, is with the Clinical Judgement assessment. Many nurses get hung up on providing an actual medical diagnosis, and they often say that, as nurses, we do not diagnose. I would really love it if the assessment itself explained this more clearly so they understand what is being asked. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate how HealthStream Jane provides a knowledge base for our new hires. It gives a broad overview and helps create a better understanding for both the med surge nurses and us as educators. I like that it gives students an idea of where they stand compared to other nurses in the same specialty area. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing that's a little challenging is when HealthStream Jane automatically assigns work to new hires. It's tough, especially for those new to practice or recent graduates, because they already have a lot on their plate. They don't necessarily need extra assignments at this point, and they might already be picking up some of that information in their additional TTP classes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Jane has helped elevate our team by being able to do a consistent assessment of baseline knowledge for all staff and provide professional development that is individualized. We love the ability to have intentional conversations with hires about their knowledge and development. It is easy to use and the customer support has been great. We are using this on all new hires at our facility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find that Jane is consistently updating and I appreciate that. I would like to have the ability to customize the knowledge assessments more- like picking the questions that apply directly to my department. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like HealthStream Jane for its pathways feature, which automates the onboarding process for specific types of employees. Creating pathways that launch assessments in pre-built groupings saves me a lot of time. I also appreciate how the platform incorporates the clinical judgment process with videos and AI interactions, making it very helpful. The setup was fairly easy, and we had good customer support throughout the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I can really think of is that sometimes the test results when we're reassessing feel technically skewed. It's like the user might be improving because they're getting more used to the layout of the test, rather than it being a true closing of a knowledge gap. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The variety of practice settings, the ability to customize how I use it with pathways, the ability that pathways has to assess learner individualized needs and provide them with specific developmentally appropriate for them Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Occasionally assignments do not work right when using student groups, recent experience and I am not sure why they did not show up on the learner end as I was able to see that they were assigned on my side as an admin Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Provides a strong assessment of new hire's knowledge base, from which we can customize orientation to their individual needs. The customer service/support is fantastic. Setting automatic assignments up based on results is extremely helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have been unable to figure out how to work the Clinical Judgement assessments into our onboarding process, so feel are under-utilizing this feature. Also, staff are scoring low on the Clinical Judgement assessments because they are not putting enough information in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
