Employee rostering for healthcare
Plan shifts for every role
RosterElf's rostering software makes it simple to plan shifts for nurses, doctors, carers, and admin staff. Managers drag-and-drop shifts, apply live labour budgets, and use templates for recurring rosters.
Rosters can be adjusted to match patient demand, supporting compliance with staffing rules while keeping wage costs under control.
Time & attendance for healthcare
No more paper timesheets
Replace manual timesheets with digital clock-ins via tablet or mobile with photo and GPS verification. Payroll-ready timesheets auto-generate for nurses, carers, and support staff.
This reduces disputes, improves compliance with break rules, and saves admin time for busy healthcare managers.
Payroll integration for healthcare
Pay runs you can trust
Approved timesheets flow directly into payroll with awards applied automatically. Payroll integration ensures staff are paid correctly for penalties, overtime, and allowances.
Seamless integration with Xero and MYOB removes double handling and reduces compliance risks.
Leave management for healthcare
Plan around leave easily
Staff request leave through the app, and approvals update rosters instantly. Leave management ensures critical care shifts, wards, and clinics remain covered.
Managers can plan around holidays, training, or unexpected absences without last-minute scrambles.
Mobile apps for healthcare teams
Stay aligned on the go
Managers publish roster changes in seconds, and staff are notified instantly on mobile. Nurses, carers, and doctors stay aligned on shifts, availability, and shift swaps.
This reduces no-shows and miscommunication in busy healthcare environments.
HR compliance for healthcare
Store qualifications securely
HR tools let managers store qualifications, inductions, and training certifications in one place with expiry reminders.
Ensure only licensed and trained staff are rostered, supporting compliance with healthcare regulations and safety standards.
