Thanks to Medacs Healthcare, I am now working in a state-of-the-art facility in Dubai. The team was with me every step of the way.

A. Johnson

Nurse

A colleague recommended Medacs, and it turned out to be a game-changer. They found me a locum post that gave me flexibility and exposure to new specialties.

Junior Doctor

It has been fantastic working with you on the RPO, you have worked responsively in a coordinated manner & kept the division updated through the whole recruitment process. The pandemic brought its challenges, closing international flights & visa offices thereby delaying start dates but you have gone over & above to ensure we kept to timeframes & now five new Speciality Registrars are working in Urgent Care. This will indeed ensure urgent care is well prepared for the winter ahead.

CEO

With Medacs Healthcare’s support, we recruited and started 35 doctors within the first year; three times as many as we initially expected. We saw a positive financial impact on agency spend, contributing to us ensuring we did not exceed our Agency Ceiling. In summary, Medacs Healthcare helped to enhance our processes and upskill our existing team, due to their experience and knowledge of the ever-changing market conditions. The Trust has benefitted from a trusted partnership that has delivered much more than we initially expected and our organisations continue to work closely together.

Contingent Labour Manager

Our Medacs onsite team fully engage with our Senior Leadership team offering market and localised knowledge so we can plan for the future. The support offered to our individual service areas has allowed for better planning, which has meant we spend only when we need to on agency and through strategic analysis they have been able to support us with permanent recruitment options in order to help with continuity of care and financial budget management. Our relationship is built on honesty, transparency and trust and this has served us well to form a partnership approach rather than being solely transactional. I look forward to the continued relationship moving forward.

Medacs has really helped us to improve our staffing operations, consistently providing insight and enabling our delivery of savings, excellent fill rates and 100% DE efficiency on these fill rates year on year. They have provided insight and expertise to support us in our transition to manage our supplementary staffing operations moving forward, for which we are extremely grateful.

Workforce Director

Medacs Healthcare’s international recruitment service has been very thorough and efficient. Each cohort of nurses has been delivered in less than 3 months, far quicker than we expected. Thanks to the support provided with OSCE training, we have also been able to onboard nurses rapidly and ensure we have much better staffing levels for the second half of this year, going into winter pressures

Assistant HR Director

The onsite team have worked really closely with our teams to drive best practice and the results have been very positive. Integration with bank processes is now seamless and I’m seeing a proactive, problem-solving approach to filling shifts instead of an immediate knee-jerk reaction to deal with a perceived need

I couldn't be happier to be working with you and Medacs. I used to spend much more time pursuing employment opportunities, including searching, follow-up emails, compliance, etc. You have made what is usually an agonising process far less painful.

Medacs provided a quick and effective workforce response. Their commitment to the vaccination programme has been exemplary and their sustainable solution would form an excellent blueprint for a national ‘best practice’ vaccination workforce model

The All-Wales International Recruitment programme was a ground-breaking initiative. A multi-agency collaboration of this scale would ordinarily take many months of detailed planning but, in response to workforce pressures, we were required to deliver at unprecedented pace. Medacs involvement was absolutely critical, and we relied on their expertise, guidance and professionalism throughout
