Nurse and Hospital Staff Scheduling

Nursing schedules can involve hospital staff scheduling, home care nurse scheduling, nurse staffing agencies, nursing home staff scheduling and several other types of healthcare staff schedules. We offer an employee scheduling program among other solutions.

If you are responsible for scheduling dozens or hundreds of nurses and other health care professionals to daily shifts and want something more than a spreadsheet, we now offer a full-featured web-based scheduling system that you can access from anywhere in the world via the internet. Click here to learn more about our web-based scheduler and all of the features available to you to ease your scheduling chores.

If your scheduling is rather simple and you don’t need all the “bells and whistles” take a look at our Series 1 Simple Shift Scheduler that provides a 1 month calendar to schedule up to 50 employees and 50 shifts or tasks.

If you need software to schedule nurses in a hospital, nursing home or other healthcare facility to weekly schedules, our Series 15 Easy Schedulers are just what you need. They were created with nurse scheduling in mind and can schedule several different types of nurses including, RNs, LPNs, CNAs, Head Nurses, etc. using point-and-click Excel menus. You can assign pre-defined shifts to your nurses or you can simply assign hours throughout the day to each nurse.

Home care agencies and home health care agencies typically send their caregivers to several different client locations each day and need to be careful to avoid double-booking a caregiver or a client or missing a client appointment altogether. Our Series 6 Multi Task Schedulers were developed for a nation-wide home care organization to schedule their caregivers to daily client visits and are now available for general distribution. The scheduler keeps track of client needs and caregiver availability to allow you to use the Excel point-and-click menus to assign caregivers to multiple client visits each day without missing an appointment or double booking anyone. These spreadsheets even have a QuickBooks connection so you can transfer data for payroll and client billing. Our new Series 22 Multiple Daily Task Schedulers are similar in function to the Series 6 Schedulers and are available in a greater range of sizes but use a different scheduling approach which may be more appealing to you for your scheduling activities. They can automatically send schedules via e-mail, and create files to import into your Outlook Calendar and into QuickBooks accounting software.

Nurse staffing agencies find both our Series 13 Employee Dispatchers and our Series 16 Calendar Schedulers ideal for scheduling their agency nurses to hospitals, nursing homes and other medical facilities for part time assignments. The Employee Dispatchers allow you to assign your nurses to daily shifts at up to 20 different locations for 2 weeks using point-and-click Excel menus of available nurses. The Calendar Schedulers allow you to specify your nurse availabilities in great detail each day and use a calendar format for scheduling nurses in 25 different groups to 75 different locations for one month at a time using point-and click Excel menus of available personnel.

If you want a straight-forward quick and easy scheduler for up to 10 shifts and 1.000 employees try our Series 23 Quick and Easy Shift Schedulers.
