Q: I am looking for a scheduler that would be suitable for nursing staff. In our case the shifts are (1) 07:30-15:30, (2) 13:30-21:30 and (3)21:00-08:00. There is a 0.5 hour handover time for the 1st and 3rd shift and a 2 hour overlap on the 2nd shift. Is there any way I can do this with your normal scheduler that I have just downloaded? This seems to be a common need in many hospital and hospice wards where continuous cover of nursing staff is required. Any help would be most welcome.
A: Yes, you can have overlapping shifts by simply setting the shift start time and duration. By default these roll on from the previous shift however you can overwrite them (yellow cells). The main requirement is that the shifts are arranged in chronological order.
