THE COST OF THE WAY IT’S ALWAYS BEEN DONE

The booking takes minutes.
The chasing takes the day.

Which spreadsheet is current? Has that room actually been released? Who approved the change? Your teams deserve answers without an inbox investigation.

THE FRAGMENTED WAY

A booking process spread everywhere.

  • Email chains to confirm room availability
  • Spreadsheets that fall out of step
  • Word documents and rotas to cross-check
  • Legacy tools with limited operational visibility
  • Manual effort to build the management picture

More checking. More uncertainty. More avoidable work.

THE WHICHROOM WAY

A shared picture your teams can work from.

  • Room availability and session plans together
  • Clear booking, approval and release workflows
  • Room suitability visible when you need it
  • Changes traceable and issues ready for review
  • Useful reports for service improvement

Less chasing. Clearer decisions. Better use of room time.

MORE THAN A BOOKING CALENDAR

From finding a room
to seeing the bigger picture.

Find room options by availability and suitability instead of asking around or checking several files.

04 /

Suitable spaces

Bring room capacity, facilities, equipment and opening hours into the booking decision.

05 /

Recurring bookings

Support regular sessions with review dates that help keep long-standing allocations under active consideration.

Reusable rota templates

Keep standard weekly room and session plans in a consistent structure for each department.

Provider directory

Keep the operational service and provider information used in session planning together.

Role-based access

Support appropriate responsibilities for booking teams, reviewers and administrators.

DESIGNED FOR SERVICE IMPROVEMENT

Give time back.
Make space count.

Modernisation should make the working day better, and make improvement easier to measure.

01

For booking & administrative teams

Spend less time chasing confirmations, checking versions and piecing together the current plan.

02

For service & operational managers

See what needs attention, understand changes, and find opportunities to add activity alongside clinics already running. Review the room opportunity with the team already on site before agreeing any expansion.

03

For estates & digital leaders

Bring scattered room information into a more consistent view and support a considered move away from legacy processes.

YOUR BUSINESS CASE, WITH YOUR NUMBERS

What could less
admin be worth?

Time spent chasing, checking and coordinating adds up across a team. Explore the value of time you could release, using assumptions that match your Trust.

This is a scenario calculator, not a measured WhichRoom savings claim. Released staff time becomes a cash saving only when a real cost is removed.

Focused on rooms and sessions.

WhichRoom is designed for administrative room and session planning, without patient-identifiable data. Deployment, identity integration and assurance requirements are agreed with each organisation before operational use.

YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

A clearer next step.

Is this just another room booking calendar?

WhichRoom brings room booking together with weekly clinic-session planning, approvals, cancellations and room release, review queues, estate information and operational reporting. The value is a clearer shared process as well as a calendar.

Can we move away from spreadsheets and email?

That is the aim: bring the room booking and session planning workflow into a shared application. We start by understanding your current records and process, then agree what can move into WhichRoom and how existing information will be validated.

Does an available room mean an available clinic?

No. An available room is a room opportunity. Staffing, equipment, clinical resources and service approval still need to be considered before additional activity can take place.

Will it save our Trust money?

WhichRoom is designed to reduce avoidable booking administration and improve room visibility. The financial case depends on your baseline and implementation costs. Staff time released, additional room opportunities and actual cash savings should be measured separately.

What about patient data, integrations and assurance?

The product is focused on rooms, sessions and staff users, without patient-identifiable data. Trust sign-on, hosting and assurance are part of the organisation’s evaluation. EPR, PAS and Outlook integrations are not part of the current core offering; discuss any integration requirement during the walkthrough.

How do we explore WhichRoom?

Start with a product walkthrough and a conversation about your current process. Availability, evaluation arrangements, support, implementation and pricing can then be discussed for your organisation’s scope.
