The Workforce Behind Better Care
NCT Staffing provides flexible workforce solutions to NHS organisations, healthcare providers, care homes and care-sector organisations across the UK.
From day-to-day staffing requirements and short-notice backfill to longer-term placements, we connect organisations with suitably qualified and appropriately vetted professionals to help them manage workforce shortages and maintain their services.
Supporting the NHS and Care Sector
Staff shortages can place significant pressure on healthcare and care organisations.
NCT Staffing helps organisations access additional workforce capacity when they need it, whether that’s to cover an unexpected absence, support increased demand or provide ongoing staffing.
Our staffing solutions can be arranged on a short-term, temporary, ongoing or longer-term basis, depending on your requirements.
We can source and supply professionals including:
- Nurses
- Care assistants and support workers
- Senior care workers
- Healthcare professionals
- Doctors and medical professionals, where appropriately qualified and available
- Cleaning and support staff for care-sector organisations
Staffing, Backfill and Support
Staffing & Backfill
When staffing levels are stretched, having access to additional personnel can make a significant difference.
NCT Staffing can support the healthcare sector with workforce requirements including:
- Short-notice staff cover
- Sickness and absence cover
- Annual leave cover
- Increased demand
- Temporary vacancies
- Planned workforce requirements
- Ongoing staffing requirements
- Longer-term placements
Cleaning & Support Staffing
A well-run care environment requires more than frontline care staff.
NCT Staffing can also supply cleaning and support personnel to care homes and other care-sector organisations.
This can help organisations maintain their facilities and support their wider operational workforce during periods of staff shortage.
Short-Term or Long-Term
Your staffing requirements can change quickly. Our approach is designed to provide flexibility.
Short-Term Cover
Additional personnel for sickness, absence, emergencies and unexpected workforce pressures.
Day-to-Day Staffing
A flexible supply of workers to support regular staffing requirements.
Long-Term Placements
Suitable professionals for extended vacancies and longer-term workforce needs.
Planned Staffing
Additional workforce capacity to help organisations prepare for known periods of increased demand.
Our Recruitment & Vetting Standards
We understand that healthcare and care organisations need confidence in the people they engage.
NCT Staffing operates recruitment and compliance processes designed to verify the suitability of the professionals we supply.
We only put forward professionals who meet the requirements applicable to the role and assignment. Our checks are tailored to the individual professional, their role and the requirements of the organisation receiving the worker.
Depending on the role and assignment, our checks may include:
- Identity verification
- Right-to-work checks
- Relevant qualification and registration checks
- Employment and professional references
- DBS checks where applicable
- Verification of relevant professional memberships or registrations
- Employment history checks
- Role-specific compliance requirements
- Relevant training and competency evidence
Qualified Professionals When You Need Them
For roles requiring professional registration, NCT Staffing works to verify the relevant registration and professional credentials before supplying personnel.
This can include appropriately registered nurses, doctors and other healthcare professionals, subject to availability, role requirements and the relevant checks.
Our aim is to make workforce sourcing simpler for organisations while maintaining appropriate recruitment and compliance standards.
We Supply Staff. We Don't Provide Healthcare.
NCT Staffing is a workforce supply and staffing agency. We recruit, assess and supply personnel to organisations that require additional staff.
NCT Staffing does not itself provide healthcare, medical treatment or regulated care services to patients or residents.
The organisation engaging our staff remains responsible for the services it provides to its patients, service users or residents, including the appropriate management, supervision and direction of personnel supplied to it.
Where applicable, professionals supplied by NCT Staffing work within the policies, procedures, governance arrangements and scope of practice of the organisation engaging them.
This distinction allows us to focus on what we do best: finding the right people to support the organisations delivering care.
Helping Tackle the Workforce Shortage
The NHS and care sector depend on a skilled and reliable workforce. NCT Staffing was established with a simple purpose: to help organisations access the people they need when staffing shortages create additional pressure.
By providing flexible access to appropriately qualified and vetted professionals, we aim to help organisations strengthen their workforce and focus on what matters most, supporting their patients, residents and communities.
