There remains a huge workforce challenge around long-term vacancies and unplanned absences contributing to vacant shifts across our NHS hospitals. We partner with trusts across the UK to drive agency spend down via Agency Management, and encourage the implementation of temporary staff banks to fill vacancies. This saves the NHS over £36 million per year through Bank and ADE placements.
