The complete rota and rostering platform specifically designed for healthcare and built for your entire workforce
Service planning, rota-building, scheduling, leave and exception reporting - all in one powerful solution.
The Patchwork team took time to fully understand our needs to help us design a rota that was easy to use and fit for purpose. They shared good guidance and resources which led to a smooth roll out and were on hand to help us whilst we were getting up to speed. Feedback from doctors and service managers has been very positive and we are very pleased with the result.
Healthcare rostering software that everyone actually uses
We know that spreadsheets can be popular for a reason. Unlike other providers, we understand that there’s no point in forcing a shoe that won’t fit. That’s why we built our rostering system to be as easy as Excel, with all the additional features needed to run a safe and cost-effective service. With all staff engaging with your health rota system, you get better visibility, better data, and better outcomes.
Efficiently roster everyone - all in one place
We’re leaving clunky tech and awkward workflows in the past, so you can do your most efficient work yet. Built with all staff groups in mind, Patchwork Rota’s complete functionality means you can finally capture the full staffing story and manage all rota-building, rostering, leave and overtime activity in one place.
Manage the entire rostering process seamlessly with:
Choose what works for you
Champion safe staffing for everyone
Better adoption, greater governance
It can seem like other rostering solutions forget the basics, making it difficult to actually see who’s working and when. Patchwork Rota is a system everyone actually uses, complete with a range of features designed to give you clarity. Stay on top of leave, see substantive and temporary staff all on one roster, and switch between different roster views to get a 360 view of your service.
Stay compliant - consistently
Uphold health and safety standards for your staff with tech built to keep you compliant. Patchwork Rota includes features that make adhering to minimum requirements for working hours, rest periods, and annual leave clear and simple.
Make exception reporting and managing overtime easier for everyone
Our exception reporting functionality removes all the barriers to raising reports, empowering your doctors to speak up and be compensated for the work they do. Make use of the same seamless workflow to manage overtime for other staff groups. Fully integrated into Patchwork Rota (no add-on modules here), we keep everything in-system, so you never miss a report or lose sight of the data you need to drive improvements.
A system that is fit for the 2020s rather than systems that were administratively friendly in the 1980s and 90s.
Cost-effective rostering with no nasty surprises
Stay informed and in control of spend
Patchwork supports demand-based scheduling with integrated service plans, ensuring your rotas are built in line with budgets while delivering exceptional patient care. In addition, take advantage of integrated leave management (so everyone knows immediately when a clinician is on leave, not when they send you a postcard!), pattern breakdowns and costings when building a rota.
Drive operational efficiency
With built-in leave management, exception reporting, automated workflows and integration with temporary staffing, you can work faster and more effectively to meet patient demand.
We are already witnessing a substantial reduction in agency spend and improved coverage in clinical areas. The Patchwork team has consistently engaged with our staff to ensure a smooth transition.
Build, retain, and empower your workforce
Support wellbeing with safe and accessible flexible working
Clinicians deserve greater control over their schedule, so we created a system that makes it safe and easy – without the email back-and-forths. Within one app, clinicians can submit preferences, organise swaps, and share annual leave requests to the relevant approvers in one action, so they can achieve the work-life balance that suits them, whilst maintaining the necessary visibility for managers.
Give clinicians the headspace they need
We expect great tech in every area of our lives, so why should healthcare be any different? Our user-friendly desktop and mobile apps allow clinicians to view their personal and team rotas on the go, as well as upload and manage their documents – no more grappling with multiple spreadsheets or outdated tech.
A solution that actually fits with clinicians’ requirements and the flexible working period that we’re moving into now.
