Floboy answered your questions, but I'd like to point out something. はず (hazu) has a lot of grammar patterns.
Examples:
1) はずだ (hazu da) - In this pattern, the speaker has information that makes him expect the event.
電車は12時に出るはずです。
"densha ha 12ji ni deru hazu desu." - The train leaves at 12 o'clock.
2) ないはずだ (nai hazu da) - Weak negative form
見つからないはずだ。
"mitsukaranai hazu da" - I shouldn't be able to find it.
3) はずがない (hazu ga nai) - Strong negative form
彼がそんなことをするはずがない。
"kare ga sonna koto wo suru hazu ga nai." - There's no way that he'd do such a thing.
4) はずはない (hazu ha nai) - The speaker doesn't exclude the possibility, but he thinks that it isn't likely to happen.
忘れるはずはない。
"wasureru hazu ha nai." - It isn't likely that he forgot.

"nareteru hazu" means "should be accustomed to". "hazu" is for "should" or "it is expected that".
Another example:
"kare ha kuru hazu desu." "He should come."/"I expect him to come."
"konna mazui tabemono wo taberu hazu ga nai." "It cannot be expected tio eat such an unappetizing dish."
