The scheduling tool is set up to give you instant access to the information you need while making a block schedule so you don't waste any time.

The main block scheduling window shows each resident's schedule and each rotation's roster of residents. See the screenshot below:

When a resident is put on a rotation in a given block, that rotation's list of residents is immediately updated.

One of the big challenges of making block schedules is accommodating each resident's vacation requests.

H2-O2's block scheduling module allows you to list each resident's vacation requests in order of preference. The program then reminds you of a resident's vacation preference when relevant.

The Vacations column in the block scheduling editing area gives you an "at-a-glance" overview of the vacation status for your residents.

The program helps you create your schedule by flagging the rotations that may cause a conflict before you even assign a rotation to a resident.

In the image below, the rotations highlighted in pink would create a conflict either with a vacation or because it would result in too many such rotations for that resident, or too many residents in that rotation during that block.

The only adequate rotation is "Elective", or "Peds" which is the currently selected rotation.

Once you have created a block scheule you can easily start working on the Call/Shift schedule for a rotation.

The program automatically adds residents to the appropriate blocks in the Call/Shift Schedule based on when they are on the rotation in the Annual Rotations Schedule.

You can sync multiple rotations to the the same Call/Shift Schedule, and the block dates don't have to match.
