Safe staffing ratios without the spreadsheet chaos.

WORKING PATTERNS, NOT GUESSWORK

Create working patterns with clinical break times, then assign them to each employee so contracted hours are anchored to reality.

Add Working Pattern form with working days, times and breaks

Rotating schedules made simple

Combine multiple weeks into one pattern that automatically cycles (ideal for 2-on, 3-off). Build it once and let it run.

Clear weekly hours & signals

Spot over, and under-contracted hours instantly. See leave and sickness in the same view as the clinical rota.

The HR + ROTAS.
Missing Link.

Most ROTA software for healthcare works in a vacuum. Evalu-8 HR is built so your clinical records and planning work as one single source of truth.

  • SKILLS-BASED GUARDRAILS

    The rota automatically checks the HR record for valid certifications (BLS, PIN Revalidation) before allowing a shift assignment.

  • AUTOMATED LEAVE SYNC

    Leave approved in HR automatically blocks clinical availability, preventing double-booking or unsafe staffing gaps in real-time.

Inspection Ready

Bulletproof Evidence for
CQC Audits

Stop scrambling for logs when the inspectors arrive. Our ROTA software for healthcare provides an instant audit trail of every shift, role, and ratio met.

  • One-click proof of maintained safe RN/HCA ratios
  • Historical logs of authorized shift changes and ward managers approvals

Scheduling Strategy

Start with patterns.
Then schedule shifts.

Set up patterns for different groups (full-time, condensed hours), including break time. For people without fixed days, schedule them via shifts so the plan reflects reality, not assumptions.

  • Create named patterns with precise break rules
  • Assign patterns so hours are clinical anchors
  • Use rota-based scheduling for flexible staff

CLOCKING TIED TO
CONTRACTED HOURS.

Overtime logic
made simple.

Capture time via QR codes or mobile app. Weekly detail shows clock-in and clock-out times and totals per day vs. planned shifts.
