Staff your GP surgery, medical centre or private hospital — without the agency runaround.
GPs, ANP nurses, staff nurses, practice nurses, clinical pharmacists and reception staff — pre-screened by our compliance and rated by the practices they've worked in.
Primary care agencies still don't understand primary care.
Most agencies staff pharmacies and GP surgeries with the same generic questionnaire. That's why the CVs never fit — and why your rota still has a gap.
Locums who don't know EMIS or SystmOne
They arrive Monday morning and can't log into the PMR. Whole clinic backs up. You lose the session.
Nurses signed off on nothing
An ANP with no travel jab sign-off, a practice nurse who's never done a diabetic review — because the agency didn't ask.
Cancelled clinics = lost QOF
Every unfilled session means missed enhanced service targets, DNAs, unhappy patients, stressed partners.
10,000+ compliant and pre-screened UK healthcare staff. Rated by you.
Pre-screened by our Compliance
Our compliance team has years of experience in primary-care recruitment. Not a chatbot.
PMR-verified, sign-off checked
We verify EMIS/SystmOne/Vision experience, PGD sign-offs, vaccination competencies, and independent prescribing status before a CV reaches you.
Pre-booked cover months out
PCN-wide rota planning. Regular faces your patients recognise.
No candidate you've already seen
We don't recycle CVs across agencies. Every locum we send is fresh, quality-first.
By the time a CV reaches you, we've already asked what you'd have asked.
These are the actual questions our compliance team puts to primary-care candidates.
Screening a GP
GPs walking in need to be productive from consultation one:
Comfortable with EMIS, SystmOne, or both?
What's your average consultation length?
Are you comfortable with QOF and enhanced services?
How do you handle a complex polypharmacy review?
Screening an ANP
ANPs work at the top of their scope:
Which acute presentations do you feel most confident triaging?
Are you an independent prescriber?
How do you handle a patient outside your scope?
Talk me through your last on-call shift.
Screening a Practice Nurse
Clinical and administrative breadth checked both:
Which vaccination programmes are you signed off on — flu, travel, childhood?
Have you run diabetic reviews independently?
What CQC standards have you worked under recently?
How do you handle a needle-stick incident?
Screening a Clinical Pharmacist
Practice-based clinical pharmacists sit between surgery and pharmacy:
Have you run structured medication reviews (SMRs)?
Are you an independent prescriber?
How comfortable are you with polypharmacy in elderly patients?
Which PMR — EMIS, SystmOne — have you worked in?
Screening Reception
Patient experience + data protection:
Have you used care navigation before?
Which appointment systems — SystmOne, EMIS Web, Vision?
How would you handle a distressed patient at the desk?
Talk me through a data-protection scenario.
Six years of listening to UK practice managers means we ask exactly what a practice manager would.
What we guarantee — in writing.
