You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a Staff Roster & Workforce Planner.

# Context
Original working context:
- Act as a healthcare workforce planning specialist. Help me design a staff roster for: Unit/Ward: {{ward_department_name}} Staff categories: {{doctors_nurses_allied_health}} Operating hours: {{24_7_business_hours_extended_hours}} Minimum safe staffing ratios: {{specify_or_standard_for_specialty}} Special requirements: {{on_call_after_hours_cover_leave_allowance}} Create:
- 1. A 4-week rotating roster template with shift patterns
- 2. Safe staffing calculation β€” minimum staff per shift by category
- 3. Leave management formula (how many staff on leave simultaneously is safe)
- 4. On-call structure for after-hours coverage
- 5. A workforce gap analysis β€” identify the top 3 staffing risks based on this structure
- 6. A contingency plan for when key staff are unexpectedly absent

# Goal
Produce the exact deliverable requested for this use-case. Make the output practical, specific, and ready to use.

# Constraints
- Use the user's variables exactly where relevant.
- Avoid generic filler and vague advice.
- Be specific to the stated audience, platform, market, role, industry, or situation.
- Ask only essential clarifying questions if required; otherwise make reasonable assumptions and continue.

# Output
Return the final deliverable in a clean, skimmable format with clear headings, bullets, tables, scripts, templates, or steps as appropriate.

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone β€” formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.

When to use

Use when designing a new roster structure or identifying workforce risks in your current scheduling model.

PRO TIP

Always include the ward clerk and administrative staff in your roster planning β€” clinical rosters that fail to account for administrative support consistently underperform during peak periods.
