Home Care agencies and providers, both small and large, have many complex and demanding problems to solve when scheduling their rosters. From scheduling anywhere from dozens to hundreds of shifts per day, while carefully fulfilling the various constraints that arise when employing multiple staff to service many clients across multiple sites. Just understanding and making sense of so many shifts is a task-in-itself for the roster manager. Making additions, changes, and substitutions can be a real challenge without the help of good software.
Imagine a system where all of your care visits are clearly displayed in chronological order on a simple calendar view. Imagine being able to view all available staff and then assign them to client shifts with a single click...
The power and simplicity of WorkRoster Roster Software is a perfect solution for home care roster management.
QLS has been utilising WorkRoster for over four years and found it to be the most effective product on the market to manage the level of staff this organisation has on duty at any given time. We would recommend to anyone who has complex roster requirements.

WorkRoster is already popular with many home care providers.
Roster Managers and employees love the speed and ease-of-use of our software.
Our home-care customers know the challenges of scheduling home care rosters, and WorkRoster has been designed to assist them in facing these challenges, including:
Employees are often on the road may not visit your office regularly, so all staff communication thus needs to be online and over the phone.
WorkRoster makes it easy to message employees or call them directly when need be.
Every client will have different appointment times and frequency of visits. All visits need to be planned and staffed well in advance.
WorkRoster makes it easy to view and plan and report on client visits including printing out dedicated client rosters or client schedules.
Client shifts can range in length from just a few minutes, up to 8 hours, or even longer for overnight stays.
WorkRoster supports all of these types of shifts and you can mix-and-match shift types to meet yours and your client's needs.
Many other roster planning systems are complicated and inflexible. Some force you to think about employees before clients, assigning shifts to employees.
WorkRoster is easy-to-use and easy-to-understand. Employees are assigned to client shifts, and you can clearly see that your shifts are covered. Spare and free capacity in the schedule is easy to see for allocating new and additional visits.
Care clients will often require multiple appointments per day or 24x7 around-the-clock care.
WorkRoster supports multiple and dedicated rosters for clients. Client rosters make it easy to ensure that all shifts are scheduled and covered.
WorkRoster certainly make my life a lot easier! Before WorkRoster it was all pen 'n' paper, now it's all on screen. I would recommend it to anybody. WorkRoster helped our business grow.
