What Our Partners Say

“

“Experienced clinicians are stepping up to fill gaps and ensure quality care; to date, more than 250 clinicians have signed up to NHS Emeritus, meaning remote and onsite appointments are readily available in a wide range of in-demand specialist areas, including Ophthalmology, General Surgery, Paediatrics, and 34 others.”

David Jones-Stanley

Customer Operations Director at Liaison Workforce

“

“An exciting opportunity for recently retired doctors to contribute in a flexible manner that works for them. For consultants/SAS doctors who do the major part of their clinical work for NHS Emeritus, will be supported for their revalidation process. They will be offered opportunities for appraisal, including the storage of CPD data via a digital platform, review of safety incidents (if any), and an access to a qualified appraiser.”

Dr Rahul Chodhari

Medical Director for NHS Emeritus and Consultant Paediatrician

“

“Our technology ensures that recently retired consultants can be matched to NHS acute trusts that require their expertise. We’re delighted to be able to support this project, which will help reduce the backlog, alleviate pressures on trusts, and provide high quality care for patients and their loved ones.”

Judith Shaw

Liaison Workforce Managing Director

“

“I honestly have to say that in my years of working for the NHS I have never had a better experience during the implementation of a new system. I thought that the training session was great and it was nice for Liaison to actually have us use the system whilst they were explaining the process and walking us through this. I find the system easy to use and intuitive, so much better than our previous incumbent.”

Andy Morgan

Assistance Directorate Manager for Specialty Medicine, Tameside and Glossop Integrated Care NHS Foundation

“

“We use the TempRE system for DE agency and bank usage, to enable us to optimise our medical workforce management. The TempRE system has greatly assisted us with this – we have significantly reduced agency spend and increased our bank usage. We are frequently asked to provide various reports on locum spend and usage, and the Reporting Team have been wonderful in supporting us. They provide regular and bespoke reports and data, sometimes at very short notice. We also have regular review meetings, which are invaluable for highlighting areas of high spend and improvement. Well done to the Liaison Workforce team, and we look forward to continuing to work with them!”

Pat Pedley

Medical Staffing Manager, Walsall Healthcare Trust

“

“I’ve found Liaison really engaged. The previous e-roster solution we were utilising were very hands-off, very training-guide driven. They delegated a lot of the aspects that you’d expect as part of an implementation process directly to us when we were looking for that support generally. We’ve found Liaison far more engaged, they’ve been on-site and available and it’s been really useful working with them. They’ve been very open and detailed in their methodologies too which is really helpful. We have regular catch ups and meetings which are always really well attended from the Liaison side – they’ve been really available.”

Nicholas Chappels

Associate Director of Medical Workforce, University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire

“

“Thank you for supporting me before, during and after the move to remote working”

Iain MacAskill

Senior Customer Support Specialist

“

“Getting used to MS Teams really helped with my initial concerns. We had regular meetings/check-ups, so the team were ok through the difficult time we were in.”

Thomas Macdonald

Senior Payroll Administrator

“

“It was scary at the start to think of working home alone every day – I was worried I would feel lonely and wondered if I would be as productive at home, but I quickly got used to it. It helped that one of Liaison’s top priorities was everyone’s wellbeing during the pandemic and for me it hasn’t changed 3 years later. Liaison still has everyone’s wellbeing as one of their top priorities and it really shows they care for their employees.”

Lydia Holtham

Support Team Leader

“

“I believe we have been successful because Liaison made an effort to ensure we can have in-person meet-ups and catch-ups online, including colleagues who live far away, for whom travel has been covered and they haven’t been left out. I feel Liaison want us to be happy and you can see this with the company days and coffee vouchers and other perks we have. If all companies took this approach, I feel they would have happier remote workers.”
