Health and Social Care

Neutral vendor managed services can significantly benefit the healthcare and social care industry by enhancing operational efficiency, ensuring compliance, and improving patient outcomes. These services act as a neutral intermediary, helping healthcare facilities manage and to procure temporary labour, ensuring a steady supply of qualified staff during holiday times or staff shortages. This approach not only simplifies the hiring process but also guarantees that all temporary workers meet necessary compliance standards and have relevant experience. Additionally, neutral vendor managed services can ensure that the relevant training and certification is in place, ensuring that staff are well-prepared to meet industry standards and improve service delivery.

Listen to Hill Care Testimonial:

What were the problems that you were experiencing with agencies?
After COVID, the agency spend was massive, with multiple agencies charging different rates without oversight. The local authority, CQC, faced criticism for not receiving profiles before staff arrived. This led to late audits, late invoices, and no audits at all agencies. The need for control was evident, prompting the need for better oversight and management.

 

What concerns did you have?
There were concerns about potential lack of management involvement and staff attendance, but was more reassured by the previous success of the proposed solution.

 

What was your experience during rollout?
The rollout was absolutely seamless and we have had great communication from Datum throughout the process.

 

What was the feedback from care homes and managers?
The new system faced fear and resistance from some users, but the Account Director and her team patiently trained them. The system works perfectly.

 

What pushback did you have from agencies?
Yes, a lot of agencies wouldn't sign up because  they were having to cut their rates.

 

How has invoicing changed?

We have eliminated late invoicing, ensuring legal compliance and audits, and ensuring everyone has the right to work and the right documentation. 

 

How is the support like from Datum?

Managers have reported that they receive prompt responses to calls or emails to the help desk. 

 

What are the benefits?

Over 80 agencies have been audited for improper staff payments, ensuring fair employment and preventing illegal practices,. Also, having one invoice each week has been a life changer.  

 

What would you do differently?

I would do it sooner. 

 

Would you recommend Datum?

Definitely!  If you're using a lot of agency providers with different rates, Datum would help you streamline the process, as well as save  you time and money but still get the quality standards needed from agencies.
