Overview

This is an overview of how you can view staffing levels and hospital directory throughout the house directly from the Central Staffing view. Here’s a overview video describing how to do this, with instructions below for various topics.

Introduction to Staffing Levels

  1. The Staffing Levels page enables you to view staffing levels across all units across the house over the course of the staffing period. This is in contrast to the Manage Staffing page where it shows a granular view of the staffing levels for each given day.

  2. Note that the Staffing Levels page will take a few seconds to load, longer than other pages.

  3. Similar to the Manage Staffing page, you are able to customize settings

  4. There are a few ways to customize your view in Staffing Levels

    1. You can filter by Day shift, Night shift, or both

    2. You can also filter by positions

    3. You can also change the groupings to view by Units or to view by Pods. If viewing by Pods, we will sum all of the staffing levels of the Units in that Pod

  5. Staffing levels are visually color coded to represent staffing levels

  6. To view staffing levels of any unit on any given day, simply click into the appropriate cell to see the unit’s census, staffing levels by position, and who was floated or in on-call. You can also view or add notes here directly.

    1. Clicking into the positions will also give you an indication of who is working as well.
