NHS Education for Scotland (NES) are committed to easy access for everyone. We're constantly working towards improving the accessibility of this application to ensure we provide equal access to all of our users.

Turas Real Time Staffing was launched in March 2022. This application is fully accessible in line with the new legislation .

This application is improved on a regular basis in an Agile way and we want to be clear and transparent with regards to what we are doing to improve accessibility for the users of this software.

This application is run by NHS Education for Scotland. We want as many people as possible to be able to use this application. For example, that means you should be able to:

• zoom in up to 300% without the text spilling off the screen
• navigate most of the application using just a keyboard
• navigate most of the application using speech recognition software
• skip to content links at the top of the page

AbilityNet has advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability.
