We recently added another hospital that wanted to manage their on-call rosters using HosPortal. This hospital was previously using another roster provider that doctors and hospital administrators were getting frustrated with.When we uploaded their users, we identified a doctor who has used HosPortal at a total of nine hospitals, about a third of all our […]
We are always trying to improve our services, features and usability. Over recent months we have designed and implemented a range of enhancements to our on-call rosters which we think our users will like: select from a wide range of alternative views that each user can customise see multiple weeks at a time on a […]
In short: HosPortal needs only an internet connection and a modern browser; if the hospital firewall is strict, whitelist the hosportal.com domain. Most staff use the native iOS and Android apps or their phone browser, so the load on hospital networks is negligible. This post gives the short list of requirements. As HosPortal grows, and […]

For a long time our customers have been able to generate recurring staffing templates, specify doctor types and skill-sets for particular activities, or the […]
