Cardiff and Vale University Health Board saves £312,563 in 6 months with Patchwork Health

Cardiff and Vale University Health Board faced the challenge of managing NHS staffing gaps and high agency costs due to a lack of visibility and infrastructure for its workforce. The organization needed to move from a reactive staffing model to a proactive one, requiring technology from Patchwork Health to provide clear data insights and an intuitive platform for clinicians.

Patchwork Health implemented its temporary staffing product suite, including Patchwork Bank and Patchwork Agency Manager (PAM), in a phased approach. This solution empowered the internal bank, provided strategic agency management, and ensured data accuracy. The results were a £312,563 saving in agency costs in just six months, a 98% bank shift fill rate, and the successful filling of over 50,000 shifts.
