 The nursing team in my practice may have to start covering longer shift patterns soon (we currently cover 8.45am - 5.30 pm Mon-Fri but obviously if there&amp;#39;s an emergency or op then we stay longer or come in earlier).

&lt;p&gt;We have three shifts at work, a 8am to 4:30pm, 11.30am - 8pm, and night duty 4pm - 8am.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We have 8 &amp;#39;rota&amp;#39; nurses who cover these shifts, we normally have five 8-4.30, two 11.30-8 and then one night duty.&lt;/p&gt;

Both nurses are currently at college so there is one day a week one has to do the whole day. Then Saturdays is 9-1 and we work every other. I write our rotas and I tend to figure out the month and if there are any hours up and owed I&amp;#39;ll give some early finishes on the Fridays before weekends off etc. Generally emergencies to stay late or earlier are paid as overtime.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#39;s much easier to figure out with less staff but obviously if there are more then the shifts can be a bit shorter. We work 40 hours a week.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
