Rotas for Anaesthetics
CLWRota is a secure, web-based application for managing the rotas of large NHS anaesthetics departments.
CLWRota is presently in use at 10 NHS departments of anaesthesia, including Chelsea & Westminster, South Manchester University Hospital Trust, Newcastle RVI and Freeman hospitals and Coventry University Hospital.

Weekly rotas are created from job plan templates at the press of a button. Setup rotas automatically reflect staff absences owing to leave or the effects of oncall activity.
Rotas can be changed manually to meet alterations in departmental needs, while taking into account consultant availability and the working time requirements of trainees.
Consultants can book their own leave within configurable constraints, and multi-week on-call rosters can be rapidly constructed.
The historical data provide week-on-week statistics and activity reports for purposes of comparison. Trainee reports also show details of training specialities and supervision.
Emails and text messages alert staff to recent changes in the rota.
