Rota plans your team's week, room by room, with time off and hours in the same place. Each room has its own band, so you can see who's working where at a glance. Approved leave shows in red, at the top of the day.

To add a shift, choose who, which room, and the times. Set it to repeat weekly or fortnightly, and your regular week is done. If someone is on approved leave, it stops you booking them by mistake.

Set your own scheduling rules in plain English, like no one working more than forty-five hours a week, and shifts are checked as you add them. Rather not start from scratch? Upload a photo of your current rota, and AI turns it into shifts for you to check. And if someone's off sick, just ask the rota assistant. It finds cover and plans the change, ready for you to confirm.

Got a gap? Post an open shift, and anyone in the team can claim it in two taps. Staff are told when their shifts change, and they can ask for time off from their phone. You're told straight away, and once you approve it, it's on the rota.

When staff arrive, they check in on their phone, or on a tablet at reception with their own PIN. You can see who's in, and who's late, as it happens. Forget to check out? They get a reminder, and their time is closed off at the end of their shift.

Each month, Work Summary adds up hours, overtime and leave for everyone, ready to export for payroll. Rota is part of Practice Hub, from Dentistry Dashboard. Try it free for fourteen days. No card needed.
