What is D.R.S?
DRS (Doctors Rostering System) is a piece of PC software designed to help with the complex task of ensuring that junior doctor's working practices are in line with the New Deal and the European Working Time Directive (EWTD).
Main features are:
Assists with the design of rules compliant work patterns
Allows the analysis of monitoring data
Produces detail and summary reports
DRS was originally produced by the London and South East RATs, but is now part of National Workforce Projects. The software is free to users inside the NHS where trusts are covered under SHA Stakeholder agreements.
DRS can also be used as a tool to complete Annual Ministerial Returns and can provide Users with a wide range of readily accepted methods of data presentation, including activity audits such as the Hospital At Night.
How do I get DRS?
Please email Russell Harding (contact details below) from your NHS account. He will then reply with download instructions.
DRS Version 3
DRS Version 3 moves the application from the desktop to the web. This means users can access their data over a browser on any computer, doctors have access to their own monitoring data, managers can share information and tasks around the trust.
