The completed forms should be submitted to the kch.medicserostering@nhs.net group mailbox.


Please DO NOT 'check out' any of the E-Rostering forms when opening them from HR Portal page links as this will prevent us from updating them.

You should instead save a copy to your own file location (File > Save As) and then edit and submit your saved copy.

Please also refrain from sending us links to copies of the form in 'OneDrive' locations - attach the file itself directly to your email.
 

ALWAYS download the form from this page before each submission to ensure you have the latest version.
Note: 'New Starter' requests that are not submitted on the latest version of this form will be returned to the originator.

Contact us
For all enquiries please contact: kch.medicserostering@nhs.net
We aim to provide a resolution/response to email queries within 3 working days. 

Where a more complex response/resolution is required, it may take us longer to provide a resolution, although we will endeavour to provide you with an estimated time to completion within 3 days when this is the case.
Please do not email team members directly in the first instance, unless specifically instructed to do so by a team member, as we will be unable to access emails sent to an individual team member who is away from work.
If your query is urgent, please try the individual team members on MS Teams before attempting to call our extensions/mobiles. 

Thank you.
