Hospital staff management is a complicated and demanding task. The correct scheduling of shifts and authorisation of staff absences are critical especially when there is a staff shortage and shift gaps. One solution is to create a NHS Staff Bank. Managing these challenges under pressure demands a professional tool. We have what you need.

This could be created using NHS Staff BANK from past or present members of your healthcare team, from staff from other NHS trusts or from local medical staffing AGENCIES recruiting or looking to fill open or unfilled shifts resulting from holiday, leave, sickness, training or another sort of absence?

How to create and use your NHS Staff Bank

If you were doing a checklist of the system features you needed to successfully create and implement an NHS staff bank it would be

  • Cloud based and reliable so that both administrators and staff can access it when they need to

  • Extremely easy and quick for staff to use

  • Unrestricted by licences in terms of your management access

  • Cost effective, flexible and wouldn’t have onerous contract conditions or lengthy notice

And it would allow you to

  • Hold as many staff or agencies as you needed to without restrictions

  • Choose whether post up open shifts or allocate them to staff

  • Easily to control who can see open shifts whether that’s by position, preferred team or qualification

  • Allocate shifts to staff you know are available

  • Allocate groups of shifts to agencies to fill

  • See shift statuses at a glance using colour coding
