Managing Your Schedule

Switch Makes it Easy to Manage Your Schedule

Review these quick tips to ensure you control your schedule, and not the other way around.

 

1.  Get familiar with the Schedule and Bids tab

Navigate to the Schedule icon on the bottom of your menu. From there you will be able to see shifts that you have bid on, as well as shifts you are scheduled for.

Starting with the Bids tab, you will be able to see which shifts you have placed bids for. If the shift is shown as Open (in pink), then your bid has not yet been accepted.

As soon as a Facility approves your Bid, the shift will show up on your Scheduled tab as Scheduled (in blue). Once your shift occurs and you clock in, the shift will show up as In Progress (in yellow) on your schedule. To clock out of this shift, you can click on the card tile.

Finally, all of your completed shifts will show up as Completed (in green) in chronological order from the most recent down to the oldest.

2.  Keep an eye on your notifications

It's important to keep a close on your notifications, both in-app as well as text messages, as important updates about your shifts will be communicated. When you are assigned to a shift, you will get an in-app notification, which will come across as a banner notification.
