We collaborate with many clients across hospital and community settings, ready to respond to their needs anytime, day or night. Our clients include NHS trusts, health boards, ICBs, private hospitals, local authorities, care and nursing homes, GP surgeries, urgent care centres, individuals with complex health needs, and more.
Our recruitment is led by experienced registered nurses, ensuring we bring professionals with the latest, most relevant experience. We offer voluntary training, CPD, and PREP study opportunities, ensuring our nurses stay updated with the latest best practices and enhance their skills.
We prioritise quality care through robust governance, regular audits, and a dedicated clinical governance team led by our Quality Assurance Director, a registered nurse. We maintain a strong complaints and incidents process involving our nurses, clients, and relevant third parties for transparent and informed resolutions.
Our advantage lies in strategically placing appropriately skilled nurses at the precise moment and location. This is possible because our leadership comprises nurses with diverse expertise.

This breadth of expertise enables us to meticulously select and position high-calibre staff in appropriate clinical settings, and have insightful discussions regarding their specific agency worker requirements with our clients.
