The Nurse OffDuty Wizard is a great help in completing the nurse off-duty or work roster/rota for a hospital ward or clinic. The design has focused on the user interface, and provides nursing staff with a familiar off duty form combined with intuitive controls. An important design goal was to achieve a simplicity of function to remove the need for any specific ICT training. A Staff File contains all the ward/clinic, staff and shift requirements.


OffDuty Wizard has been designed by nurses for nurses, why not give it a try!


The Off Duty application comes with a powerful auto offduty function, upto fifty staff and six nursing skills. Just enter the staff on the ward setup window, set the staffing requirements and skills for each shift, enter any staff requests manually and click the auto button to quickly come up with alternative solutions. The statistics can work at the ward, hospital or group level for the analysis of staffing and associated costs. The OffDuty file format is an open system file (text file), we can provide the necessary information to access these files and allow easy integration into your existing hospital computer systems. For example, interrogation of the off duty across a hospital to ascertain bank nurse requirements for any given week.


The OffDuty Wizard is free and runs on all Windows versions - Win95/98 2k, XP, Vista and now Windows 7 and 8. We hope you find the Off Duty Application helpful, saving you a little paperwork and effort. If so, you might make a contribution to either one of the great charities we support:


Next year we again plan to support Children in Need and Comic Relief.

Team Beep Test Software for PC

This Beep Test PC/Laptop software gives an implementation of the Official Leger (1982) fitness test now under many names - Shuttle Test, Beep Test, Bleep Test and PACER. Script files for all four standard Yo-Yo tests are supplied with the software. All script files can be copied and modified to suit any sport or coach training programme. In the official Leger beep test, the players being tested run between two lines twenty metres apart keeping pace with the 'beep' interval. The fitness test is in stages, starting at a warmup pace of 8.5km/h at Stage 1. Every minute the stage is incremented and speed is increased. This bleep test or beep test will test the maximum aerobic endurance of a player. We have focused on the timing accuracy, in test on our slowest PC (400MHz Pentium II) we achieved 1 hundredth of a second accuracy on the beep timing.


Martin of Rugbycoach.com wanted a beeptest for the team; being able to record players scores quickly and chart fitness over the season. There is now a Team Beep Test download available from Rugbycoach & TopEndSports making the fitness test very easy to organise and record player scores. An on-screen VO2 Max feature has been included as well as a graphical stats screen to view previous test scores and track players fitness over the season.

StreetSure Highways Maintenance

StreetSure is an aid to highways/road maintenance and planning, providing efficient roadside data capture in the form of a maintenance report with integral GPS positioning. The system essentially allows the user to quickly classify road/pavement surface damage, categorise the maintenance requirement with a combined safety checklist, accurately locate and rapidly record into a simple electronic database at the roadside.


The system comprises of a field unit, PocketPC (HP iPAQ 2210 or equivalent) with the StreetSure application software, local database and Global Positioning System (GPS) as one compact, robust inexpensive handheld unit. These units will interface/ synchronise with the main computer servers, downloading local database entries into the parent database.


The StreetSure system has been designed for flexibility, we believe the system can be adapted for many council uses where classification or action needs to be assessed and recorded together with an accurate location for the work groups. The StreetSure field unit can also be used to help navigate - using a standard GPS mapping system, to the maintenance locations recorded in the database.

 

New StreetSure iPhone App

StreetSure was released as an iPhone/ iPad App in 2013 to make it easy and quick to report problems in your neighbourhood to your local council. It finds your location automatically using GPS mapping, lets you take a photograph of the problem and it automatically emails the appropriate council.

The house profile for a given stock line can be used to generate customer picklists, this is linked to the original stock purchase or factory profile of colours and sizes.


The customer & supplier databases within Warehouse Wizard are an excellent alternative to spreadsheet type software with a friendly user interface and can be adapted to many applications.
