Using our latest feature, Pre-Arranged Shifts, you can now send shifts you’ve agreed in-person to a Florence nurse or carer you're working with.
Directly invite the care-giver you've spoken to by hitting the ‘Pre-arranged’ button after setting up the shift.
This keeps the shift private and sends an invite to the person you select.
It makes working with staff you've spoken to simpler, as you avoid posting the shift publicly on Florence for 24 hours.
How it works
Use Pre-Arranged Shifts when you'd like to work with a preferred Florence care-giver, instead of placing the shift publicly on Florence.
- Set up the shift on Florence, hitting the 'Pre-Arranged' button on the summary page
- The care-giver will receive a direct invite for the shift
- If they do not pick it in 24 hours, the shift will go public on Florence
- You can send extra invites at any time if you want to
