Shift Dependents

A Dependent can be added to a shift to inform a staff member of a task they may have to complete within that shift.

To add a Dependent go to Rota> View Rota.

Select the relevant shift, double click to edit the shift and click on the 'Dependents' tab:

Here you can press the 'green plus' icon to add a 'Dependent':

The 'Add Dependent' window allows you to chose a 'Duty Station', start and finish time and mark whether or not the dependent is clinical. Once you have added the relevant information and a description press 'Save'.

Once you have pressed save the dependent will show on the shift:

You can add more than one 'Dependent' on to the shift by using the 'green plus' icon to add additional 'Dependents'.

You can use the 'blue pencil' to edit any existing 'Dependents', and the 'red cross' icon to delete any 'Dependents' from a shift.

⚠️ Shift dependents and any modifications to existing dependents only save when the shift is saved. When creating or editing a shift dependent and then pressing 'Cancel' on the shift card, the dependent will not be saved.

Once you have finished, adding/editing your 'Dependents', click save on the shift card to save all modifications to existing and new 'Dependents'.

Shifts with 'Dependents' on them will be highlighted on the 'View Rota' screen by a green circle:

Staff members will be able to see 'Dependents' on Staff Hub by pressing the green additional information plus button next to a shift.
