Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Trust saves £144,850 with Patchwork Health

The Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Trust faced significant challenges with its temporary medical staffing, including a lack of visibility and reporting, an administrative burden from paper timesheets, and limited control over pay rates. To address these issues, the Trust partnered with Patchwork Health to implement a digital staff bank solution.

Patchwork Health delivered a comprehensive, phased implementation of its digital staff bank. This solution provided the Trust with improved governance, automated reporting, and streamlined processes. The results were substantial, including a 1,240% growth in medical bank workers and £144,850 saved in agency spend. Additionally, 92% of non-agency shifts were filled by primary bank workers, significantly improving shift fill rates and workforce planning.
