​Flexible Nurse, Care, and Support Worker Staff During Summer Holidays

As the summer holidays approach, your healthcare service teams can find themselves facing unique challenges as regular care and support worker staff members take annual leave, and the needs of those we care for fluctuate.

When you choose to work with Nurseplus, we can support you and tackle the pressures you might face during the holiday season. Here are all the ways Nurseplus can ensure your team operates smoothly throughout the summer whilst upholding consistent, quality care.

Long and Short-Term Care and Support Worker Staff

One of the biggest challenges during the summer holidays is managing staff availability. Whether you need reliable care staff to cover a few shifts or require longer-term support, Nurseplus can offer flexible agency care staff who are trained to meet the needs of your service. We’ll give you access to an extensive pool of qualified care and support workers, nurses, and healthcare assistants in your area. All of this means we can quickly provide you with the staff you need to fill any potential gaps left by annual leave.

Long-Term Cover: For planned care staff absences like holidays or maternity leave, Nurseplus can provide you with long-term cover options to ensure the care you provide remains consistent. Let us work closely with you so we can understand what you need and connect you with local care staff who will blend seamlessly into your operations.

Short-Term Cover: Don’t let last minute absences disrupt your schedule. Your Nurseplus team can provide short-term cover care staff quickly and efficiently as and when you need them. This means you’ll always have trained professionals at short notice to maintain the continuity of care.
