"we have always been impressed with the quality of the nurses supplied and by the efficiency of the office teams - often responding at extremely short notice - I think the record was 3 three minutes!"

"doctors supplied by yourself meet the criteria as laid down for the employment of locums, receive good assessments and more often than not are asked to either stay on or return to a further locum position."

The NHS

   

Many NHS institutions struggle with unfilled nursing shifts and are unable to find cover when their preferred suppliers let them down. ICS specialise in bridging the gap that those unfilled positions leave ensuring you don't face that clinical decision to close beds or cancel procedures.


ICS have been working with NHS hospitals for over a quarter of a century, and continue to provide tailor made solutions to staff NHS institutions to this day.

With many NHS hospitals facing the disappointing realities of needing to reduce their number of beds, cancel complex procedures or close A&E departments because of staff shortages, we can provide experienced professionals to provide high quality medical services, whatever the discipline required.

Providing you with the right staff when you need them can help you maintain your operational standards, and assist you to meet your clinical objectives.


At ICS, we work with NHS hospitals every day of the year, and understand the modern pressures and the need to adapt in light of ever more challenging objectives. Our 24 hour call centres are staffed with qualified nurses who are always happy to offer their expertise in ensuring that you get the necessary tailor made staffing solution.

We have staff in every discipline from general nursing staff, specialist nurses for theatres and critical care to doctors of all grades and specialities.

With the demand for ICS healthcare professionals higher than ever, one tried and tested solution used by many NHS institutions is to block book clinical staff. The benefits of block booking include:

  • Preferential pricing individually tailored to your situation
  • Improving the fill rate of agency shifts to 100%
  • A "team" of high quality nurses and doctors to promote continuity for patients and staff
  • Staff who are familiar with trust procedures helping to safeguard operational standards
