Florence, the trusted name in temporary staffing for health and social care, has launched a comprehensive flexible workforce management platform. Designed specifically for health and care organisations, it helps manage agencies, as well as permanent, bank, and agency staff—all in one place—saving time and money.
With 2,000+ organisations and 100,000+ healthcare professionals using Florence staffing, they’ve seen first-hand how difficult it is for organisations to manage a contingent workforce and keep shifts covered without high costs or operational challenges. Existing technology, such as neutral vendor platforms that currently service the sector are commonly hard-to-use and not built specifically for the sector.
Florence’s flexible workforce management platform changes this. Designed for health and care organisations, it simplifies contingent workforce and agency management with a range of tools and features that help providers fill rota gaps quickly and cost-effectively—while also driving up compliance standards.
Speaking about the new platform, Dr. Charles Armitage, CEO & Founder of Florence, said:
“We’re driven to make delivering great care easier and more cost-effective. Existing neutral vendor solutions weren’t cutting it for the health and care sector, so we wanted to put our expertise in both technology and the sector to maximum effect. That’s why we created a platform with tools that solve so many of the challenges of managing a contingent workforce in health & care.”
Florence’s platform offers a range of contingent workforce tools: Agency Manager; a neutral vendor solution for health and care, Bank Manager; a tool for managing bank and perm staff with ease, Temporary staffing; access to 100,000 vetted healthcare professionals and tools to book them, Academy; accredited online training for care organisations. Organisations can choose to use as few or many of the tools to best solve their challenges.
It’s proving a huge success, with clients like Four Seasons Healthcare Group experiencing savings of £2.1m on care costs since using Florence’s full range of tools.
