Open shifts stay visible when nobody can be assigned without breaking a rule.

Require qualified coverage

Keep role or qualification requirements attached to the shifts that need them.

Build around real availability

Use availability and time off when generating the schedule instead of checking them afterwards.

If the team cannot cover every required position, the remaining gaps stay visible for review.

How it works

Define wards, locations, shift times and the roles or qualifications required.

2

Add staff details and rules

Enter availability, qualifications, weekly hours and rest rules.

3

Generate the schedule

Review the proposed assignments and any open qualified positions.

Healthcare schedules need the right mix, not only the right headcount

A shift can have enough people and still be unusable if the required qualified role is missing. Nurse scheduling becomes harder when availability, leave, multiple locations, overnight work and different qualification levels all interact.

Rosterzen lets the manager model those requirements directly. It is a scheduling system, not a clinical staffing standard, so the organisation decides the minimum staffing and qualification rules that must be followed.

  • Day and night shifts
  • Qualified role coverage
  • Multiple wards or sites
  • Rest and weekly hour limits

Use it as a scheduling tool, not a clinical compliance decision-maker

Rosterzen can enforce the coverage and work rules you enter, but it does not determine safe staffing ratios, scope-of-practice requirements or jurisdiction-specific healthcare regulations. Those decisions remain with the organisation and its qualified advisers.

Frequently asked questions

Can Rosterzen require a particular qualification on a shift?

Yes. You can make a role or qualification part of the coverage requirement and only eligible staff will be considered for that assignment.

Can it schedule nights and 24/7 coverage?

Yes. Overnight and continuous coverage can be modelled with availability, hours and rest rules.

Does Rosterzen set clinical staffing ratios?

No. Your organisation defines the required coverage and qualification mix. Rosterzen schedules against those inputs.
