Even after leave is approved, users can submit requests for changes that are passed to the approval dashbaord.

Leave Alerts and Dashboard

Alerts can be sent to administrators when leave is requested (you can decide which roles, users, leavetype and much more) and pending leave can be seen on the administrator dashboard

Leave management FAQs

Any user you allow. HosPortal's leave rules decide who can request leave, when, and whether a request is approved automatically, held as pending or declined. For example, you can block new requests over a two-week Christmas and New Year period, or cap the number of people on leave at once.

Yes. You set the conditions. A common rule approves leave automatically when it is more than six months away, the user has no on-call in that period and no more than two colleagues are already on leave; anything outside those conditions goes to an administrator to approve.

Users choose a leave type that matches their role, such as annual, study, conference or FACS leave, and can attach any number of documents and notes to the request.

As many as you need. You create the leave types yourself and apply each one to all roles or to selected roles only.

What Healthcare Leaders Are Saying About HosPortal

Ross Hanrahan – North Canberra Hospital

“HosPortal’s understanding and experience in tackling complex theatre staffing and call allocations has been a godsend for our theatre efficiency and staff satisfaction.  An easy 5 stars from our admin team and staff.”

Victoria Sabbouh – Wollongong Hospital

“Great rostering system, very user friendly. More importantly – great technical support staff, respond so quickly to any question, very helpful!” 

Anna McDonald- Royal Hobart Hospital

We moved to Hosportal for our anaesthetic department and theatre allocations rostering 3 years ago.

It has been a vast improvement from out previous system especially for user visibility of staffing and communication of changes.

I have been very impressed with Hosportal’s responsiveness to queries, requests and support.

Cassandra Pellicci – Ramsay Health

The Hosportal team is fantastic to work with. They make the rostering system for my doctors a seamless activity, saving time and reducing stress. In particular,  Shiela’s support has been outstanding, she is always available, responsive, and willing to assist with any questions or issues I have.

Dr. Tharindu Vithanage – Deputy Director, Anaesthesia

Hosportal is probably the best healthcare rostering platform I have ever come across. I have used multiple digital rostering platforms throughout my career, but nothing comes close to what Hosportal can deliver. The easy user interface, incredible nuanced customisability, flexible yet robust rules and logic make the roster generation process incredibly simple. Though the best aspect of Hosportal is the rapid support of their incredibly talented dev teams to further refine and implement new features and incorporate new customisations.

Dr. Thara – Head of Unit – The Queen Elizabeth Hospital

The HosPortal team has been an exceptional partner in streamlining our anaesthesia rostering at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital. From the initial setup to the go-live phase, they provided clear guidance, timely support, and a genuine commitment to understanding our department’s needs. Their rostering platform is intuitive, adaptable, and has significantly reduced administrative workload, while allowing greater transparency and flexibility for our staff. The team’s responsiveness and willingness to tailor solutions for our workflows have made a real difference in the way we manage allocations. I would highly recommend HosPortal to any department seeking an efficient, user-friendly, and well-supported rostering solution.
