“Going forward we will have a better understanding of how the system is being used, where the bottlenecks are in terms of approvals and how we’re addressing some of those challenges. Giving us an understanding of the number of vacancies we have on the roster will drive us forward in terms of roster redesign and mitigate those vacancies and reduce them.”

Diane Poulson
Head of Medical Staffing and Recruitment

“We are producing reports now which are great to show how much is being used, how much is going over cap and how much we use of the Welsh government cap, which is a huge benefit to us.”
