Meeting Agenda

This is the second in a "The Future of Healthcare Staffing" series for Clinical and Healthcare businesses we are running between now and Christmas.  

The other remaining dates are as follows:

 

In this session we will explore the future of bank staffing in light of the NHS 10 Year Plan and the role recruiters can play in supporting workforce planning for both perm and contingent staff.

 

This includes:

  • an understanding of the role of the banks within the supply chain, both managing the Trusts’ flexible workforce and as MSPs; their level of involvement in Trust policy and level of control.
  • an understanding of the impact of government policy on the major NHS banks in 2025 and their plans moving forward.
  • an understanding of how APSCo members can work with the banks to support the Government’s three shifts in the 10 Year Health Plan.

 

Most importantly, we will try and identify potential future areas of opportunity for workforce supply, volumes, and supply models to help support the devolved, neighbourhood model planned; and look at plans for supply chain communication on future changes.

Kate Harper

Director Of Workforce Insight

Kate has built her career on aligning people strategies with the realities of their markets and environments — and because those environments never stand still, her work is about helping people navigate change in ways that enable them to perform at their best at every stage.

This has meant leading high-impact projects to transform values, culture, and employer brand; tackling systemic challenges such as institutional racism; and delivering large-scale organisational change, from downsizing and rightsizing to location moves and complete shifts in ethos — such as helping a major local authority reimagine itself as a learning organisation.

At NHS Professionals, I’m focused on shaping a flexible workforce for the future NHS, aligned with the 10-Year Plan.
