HRMS for Hospitals and Clinics
24×7 Rosters and Payroll
You Can Stand Behind
Rotational rosters for every unit, separate pay structures for nursing, technical and support staff, and statutory registers kept for five years.
Where Healthcare HR Struggles
Coverage on a Whiteboard
Nursing rosters live on a board or a spreadsheet, and a sick call at night is fixed by phone.
Night Shifts on the Wrong Day
A shift that ends at 8 am is counted on two days, or none, and pay is argued later.
Contract Staff Out of Sight
Housekeeping and security work your shifts, but their attendance sits with the contractor.
How a Healthcare Month Runs on QkrHR
Rosters first, then attendance against them, then approved changes, then one payroll.
Build Rosters per Unit
Each unit's roster covers every shift, with rotations and weekly offs planned ahead.
