You can update your availability using the calendar. Using the availability key, you can add when you’ll be available – whether it be for days, nights, morning or afternoon, it’s all there.

Not only does our availability calendar help to ensure you have visibility of the shifts you want to work but by keeping your availability up to date, you’ll be eligible for priority shift bookings.

Holiday mode tells us when you’re not around - meaning we won’t contact you until you return.

There are a range of filters to help narrow down your search when finding a shift.

Availability

The ‘match my availability’ filter shows you any shifts which align with the dates and times you have inputted when you are free to work in the calendar.

All shifts

You can view all shifts available. When using this filter, you will be prompted with an additional filter, ‘shift type’, to help narrow down your search.

*Grades: AU = HCA and TR and GS = Qualified Nurse.
