Aged care rostering software for Australian providers
RosterShare is the rostering platform for Australian residential facilities, home care, and community care teams. Cover mornings, nights, and sleepovers, keep familiar faces on the same wing, and fill sick calls before the shift starts.
This week
Nights covered, one west wing shift open
Around-the-clock coverage
Mornings, nights, and sleepovers on one grid.
Care does not stop at 5pm, and the roster should not pretend it does. Build AM, PM, and night shifts side by side, add sleepover shifts in community houses, and keep the pattern going with templates instead of rebuilding a 24/7 fortnight from scratch.
- Overnight shifts such as 23:00 to 7:00 sit naturally in the week
- More than one shift per person per day when a double is unavoidable
- Save the fortnight as a template and reapply the rotation
- Copy the previous week and adjust only the exceptions
- Filter to one wing, house, or site to check coverage at a glance
Coverage by shift
East wing, this week
Open shift filled
Sunday 15:00-23:00 west wing posted at 5:38am after a sick call, claimed by Amara at 5:51am, approved before breakfast.
Open shifts and cover
The floor cannot run short, so the shift cannot stay empty.
In aged care an uncovered shift is not an inconvenience, it is residents waiting longer for care. When someone calls in sick, post the shift once and every available carer sees it at the same moment, instead of the coordinator phoning one number after another before handover.
Made in Australia, for Australian businesses.
RosterShare is built by an Australian team and rosters residential facilities, home care, and community houses across the country. Prices are in AUD with no minimum spend, so a single house pays for a single house, not an enterprise licence.
Every role on the floor
RNs, carers, kitchen, cleaning, lifestyle: one team, one roster.
An aged care roster is really six rosters wearing one uniform. Positions keep each role visible, so you can see at a glance that every morning has its RN and the kitchen is covered on Sunday, without juggling a spreadsheet per department.
Describe the fortnight. Review the draft.
"An RN on every morning, Joseph stays on nights, nobody rostered against their unavailable days." Auto Roster turns instructions like that into a draft built around availability, time off, and positions, and nothing is applied until the coordinator has looked at every shift.
Time clock and timesheets
Nights and sleepovers, recorded without the paper run.
Staff clock in on their phone or on a shared tablet at the nurses station, and each punch becomes a timesheet entry matched against the rostered shift. Overnight punches that cross midnight are handled for you, breaks are timed, and approved hours export to CSV for payroll.

Aged care rostering FAQ
Common questions from care managers and rostering coordinators.
Is RosterShare built for aged care rosters?
Yes. Aged care runs around the clock, and the roster grid handles that week: morning, afternoon, and night shifts, sleepovers, and more than one shift per person per day. Set up positions for RNs, ENs, personal carers, lifestyle, kitchen, and cleaning, and use locations for wings, houses, or sites.
How do carers and nurses see their roster?
Every staff member gets their own account and always sees the latest published version on their phone, with nothing to install. You can also send the week by email, notify changes by SMS, share a read-only link, or print a copy for the nurses station.
What happens when a carer calls in sick before a morning shift?
Post the shift as an open shift and every available staff member sees it immediately instead of you phoning down a list at 5:30am. You can require manager approval on claims, so the final decision on who fills the shift stays with you.
Does RosterShare interpret the SCHADS award or track care minutes?
No. RosterShare calculates labour costs as hourly rate times paid hours and exports approved timesheets as CSV, so award interpretation and care-minute reporting happen in your payroll and compliance systems. If you need those inside the rostering tool, a larger platform will fit better.
Does RosterShare track nursing registrations or qualifications?
No. Registration and qualification records stay in your HR system. Because open shift claims can require manager approval, the manager still makes the call when a shift needs an RN rather than a personal carer.
Can I keep a record of who was rostered and who actually worked?
Yes. Published rosters stay stored in your account, staff clock in and out on their phone or a shared tablet kiosk, and every punch becomes a timesheet entry matched against the rostered shift. Approved timesheets export to CSV whenever you need the history.
What does it cost in Australia?
Everything is free for 14 days with no credit card. After the trial, Pro is from $3.99 AUD per staff member per month on annual billing ($4.99 AUD billed monthly), with unlimited staff and sites and no minimum spend. The free plan keeps roster building and printing for up to 5 staff.
