JDAT – Monitoring
Over the next few slides we aim to give you some information to help you understand and successfully complete your monitoring.
Monitoring
• Every 6 months• Contractual obligation• 75% needed to be valid exercise• Results within 15 working days
So How is Monitoring Done?
• Most Trust will use an online system called DRS– You will be sent email with login details and
also some guidance of how to use the system.
• Some trust will use paper diary cards
To Complete Monitoring Successfully
• Understand your rota and shift pattern• Understand Rest• Understand Natural Breaks
Rota/Shift Type
• Full Shift – In hospital working – No rest just Natural Breaks
• On call– Work 9-5 then go home and on-call from home (but
might occasionally get called in).– In the 24 hours you must have a period of rest.– Your have more hours on duty than you do working.
Rest• NOT paid for rest• Best method – consider as
on-call, home and asleep
Natural Breaks• Natural breaks are NOT
counted as rest. • Natural Breaks are paid. • You get them, or you don’t
Trainees who are not on an on-call rota should leave rest as 0hrs on
monitoring
Monitoring - How1. Put in day type2. Start and End Time3. No rest unless on
call from home4. Resident5. Natural Break6. Work Episodes7. Notes
Put in day type• Put in day type– Standard– Full Shift– On call– Zero/rest day– Leave
Start and End Time• Start and End Time– Enter start of work
time– Enter end of work
time– If 24 hour on call
then enter for example start 9:00 and end 9:00
Rest• Rest– Only enter if working
from off site – on call from home.
– Not Natural Break.– Generally full
shift/standard day will not include rest
Resident• Keep box ticked if
working on site• Untick box if
working from home (i.e. on call)
Natural Break - NB• If you have been
able to get 30 minutes break approximately every 4 hours then tick box– Standard 8 hour day
should have 1 – Long full shift 12 hour
should have 2
Work Episodes• This is only for on-
call shifts– Enter episodes when
working out of hours
Notes• You do not have to
enter any notes but it is sensible to do.– Helps explain why unable to
get natural breaks or working over hours
– As it can be difficult to remember if questioned weeks and may be months later
