Case Study: The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust achieves major workforce efficiency gains with Patchwork Health

The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust grows staff bank 640% with Patchwork Health

The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust faced a challenge with its standalone workforce systems, which created a significant administrative burden and risk of error. To complement a new rostering system for doctors, the Trust partnered with vendor Patchwork Health to implement its tech-enabled bank service to gain greater visibility and control over temporary staffing.

Patchwork Health implemented a transformation program that integrated its system in real-time with the Trust's other IT systems. This removed administrative duplication and provided frontline teams with better information. The results included a 640% growth of the staff bank in under 18 months, a 94% shift fill rate in A&E, and savings of £300k per month through agency avoidance.
