What are the Common Types of Rotational Schedules?
There are various types of rotational schedules used in nursing, including:
Fixed Shifts: Nurses work the same shift for a set period, such as two weeks, before rotating to another shift. Rotating Shifts: Nurses rotate through all shifts in a cycle, such as morning, afternoon, and night, over a designated period. Split Shifts: Nurses work two separate periods in one day, allowing coverage during peak times. On-Call Shifts: Nurses are available to work if needed, providing flexibility for staffing.
