Why is Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Training Hub creating a staff bank?
To build resilience
Having access to a staff bank will make it easier for you to fill shifts – even when cancellations are made at the last minute. This helps you to deliver services effectively, and takes some pressure off your existing staff. It will also make it easier to collaborate with nearby practices and PCNs, and share unused resources.
To save money
The staff bank will help reduce your spend, as you’ll no longer need to pay high agency fees to book locums – instead you can book trusted staff from the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough staff bank for just a 1% fee.
To reduce time spent on admin
Having one platform to manage all bookings reduces administration time significantly. With verified clinical governance documents on staff profiles, compliance is much easier to track. With automatic notifications, you no longer need to contact staff individually about shifts. Lantum consolidates statements, so you make just one payment rather than multiple. And, with the direct messaging tool, you can keep communication in one place and ensure all rota managers have full visibility.
What is Lantum?
Lantum is the UK’s leading digital staffing platform for primary care, connecting hubs and practices with clinical staff to fill rota gaps. Our software allows rota managers to post unfilled shifts, while our community of clinicians can search and apply for those shifts, all in one central location.
