Why is compliance important

Maintaining our high-quality compliance standard is essential in the service we provide. Our pre-screening checks provide a benefit to both candidates and clients, and are part of our responsibility to guarantee patient safety.

As a framework agency, we have standards for compliance that we are required to meet. Through the dedication of the compliance team we regularly go above and beyond the standard requirements set ensuring that you are fully up to date with your training and exceeding the standards.

All candidate compliance documents are held on record and expiry dates recorded. When an element is due to expire, candidate will be contacted by our compliance team to arrange the necessary update. This can be done at a time, day and location suitable to the candidate.

Maintaining compliance

Due to the dedication of our compliance team in ensuring that the highest compliance standards are maintained we are regularly awarded platinum scoring (or equivalent) within our audits as standard.

Regular internal audits are conducted to ensure this standard is maintained and constantly improved upon so that we can exceed our clients’ requirements and expectations.
