Note
A regular -ed form doing double duty: one spelling serves as the simple past (the hospital rostered her) and as the past participle after have or be. Because the verb is transitive, the passive comes naturally when the people being scheduled are the point: staff were rostered to work, nurses rostered for nights. Mathematics uses the same form when a set's elements are listed inside brackets.
