Units distance

Distance between units

The functionality of “Units distance” within the menu of “Staff” allows to specify the time necessary for the staff to move between two units od health care company. Time required to move from unit A to unit B is most often the same al time required to move from unit B to unit A, but in some situations it can be different (for example when moving from A to B with the different road than from B to A) and that's why system allows to define both times independently (time required to move from unit A to B and time required to move from unit B to A). After selecting functionality “Units distance” there appears table, in which each column represents unit from whitch staff starts ane each row represents unit to which staff moves – in the cell on the crossing of the given column and row there is a list that allows choice of time necessary to move between these units. After setting times necessary to move between particular units one has to save data clicking the button of “Save”.

Times required for staff to move between units are taken into account when planning timetables – if doctor works in two units then system automatically adds to doctor working time an appropriate time margin necessary to move between unit (within the period of time reserved for staff to move between units it is not possible to plan slots in any of these units).
