Staff availability

Maintain accurate working schedules for every practitioner — including part-time clinicians, locums and contractors. Apply bank-holiday closures across the whole practice in one step, with no risk of patients booking into windows your team cannot cover.

Clients only see real open slots — never ones your team cannot fill.

  • Configure part-time and locum schedules so only genuinely available slots are offered to patients.
  • Apply bank-holiday closures to all practitioners simultaneously without editing individual calendars.
  • Reassign practitioner lists when a clinician is on leave — patients are redirected to the next available colleague.

Xircuit's staff availability module lets you set working hours, recurring schedules and one-off exceptions for every team member. The booking system draws directly from live availability — so clients are only ever offered slots that someone on your team can actually take.

Real-time availability

Staff schedules feed live into the booking engine — no lag, no manual updates between a rota change and client-facing slots.

Exception handling

Block individual days, holidays or training sessions as one-off exceptions without rebuilding the whole schedule.

Per-staff working hours

Set different hours for each team member — part-timers, job-sharers and contractors all managed correctly from the start.

Cover and substitution

Reassign services to a cover colleague instantly when someone calls in sick — affected clients can be notified automatically.

Bank-holiday and closure cascade

Apply a closure across all staff with one action — public holidays, refurbishments and emergency closures handled in seconds.

Staff availability

Health practices with multiple practitioners that publish availability through Xircuit typically eliminate patient-facing booking errors entirely — no more "sorry, that slot isn't actually free" calls.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I set different hours for different days of the week?

Yes. Each staff member has a day-by-day schedule so you can configure different start and end times for every day of the working week.

What happens to bookings when a staff member goes on holiday?

Add a holiday block to their schedule and Xircuit hides their slots automatically for that period. Existing bookings in that window are flagged so you can reassign or contact clients proactively.

Can I share a role across multiple staff members?

Yes. Assign a service to multiple staff and clients will be offered any slot where at least one of them is available — the system handles the distribution automatically.
