Your organisation's own structure, with teams that build themselves

Your structure, your names

Compassly is set up with your own locations, such as wards, clinics and sites, your services, such as maternity or emergency care, and the roles people work in, such as nurse, midwife or physiotherapist. Because it uses the names your staff already know, everyone recognises where they sit from the start, and larger organisations can group locations by site to keep things easy to navigate.

Setting up that structure once pays off right through Compassly. It decides which teams people belong to and helps match the right competencies to each person's role, which our page on job descriptions and packages explains.

When a ward closes or a service is reorganised, the old unit can be retired, so it is no longer offered for new job descriptions while people already linked to it are unaffected. Your structure in Compassly keeps up with your organisation as it changes.

See who needs attention

Supervisors spend their time on the people they support, so Compassly keeps everything they need in one place.

Every colleague, one list. On the Colleagues tab, Supervisors switch between one team, all their teams together, the colleagues they have bookmarked and their programme cohorts, with competencies, programmes or both shown side by side. Filters pick out people with work awaiting review, due soon, late or expired, so it is quick to see who needs attention today, and a search finds anyone by name.

Bookmarks. Each Supervisor keeps a personal list of the colleagues they work with most closely, such as new starters, whichever teams those people belong to. The list keeps itself up to date as people join and leave the organisation, and it opens first, with competency totals at a glance.

Details that save a support call. Supervisors with the right permission can see who added a colleague, which email address they use, whether it is verified and when they last signed in, which makes access problems quick to sort out. Each organisation decides who can see these details, with Super Manager as the default.

Colleagues without Supervisor access can see who is in their team and each person's supervision level, so they know who to ask when they are ready to be assessed.
