How National Care Groups Benefit from Nurseplus’s Local Branch Strength
We’re feeling the pressure like everyone else, with increasing demand, changing rules, and not enough hands on deck. But we’re committed to keeping our staffing levels safe so we can help healthcare providers ensure consistent, high-quality care. It’s not just about finding more people; it’s about finding the right fit quickly, wherever they’re needed.
At Nurseplus, we understand these challenges because we've built our business around solving them. With a strong network of local branches across England, we’ve been offering national care groups a scalable and flexible staffing solution rooted in local expertise.
The Current Staffing Landscape for Care Groups
Staff shortages in the health and social care sector have now reached critical levels. According to Skills for Care, vacancy rates in adult social care remain stubbornly high, with thousands of posts left unfilled daily. This is placing significant strain on permanent teams, compromising continuity of care, and increasing the risk of burnout and non-compliance.
As trusted national care providers, groups are facing the additional complexities such as recruiting and retaining quality care staff, which they must do everywhere, from cities to rural communities, with consistency and efficiency.
And that’s where we come in.
The Nurseplus Difference: Local Branches with National Impact
Working with Nurseplus means you gain access to our unique blend of national reach and local delivery. We operate a growing network of branches across England, each one embedded in its community, skilled at building relationships with healthcare professionals and care providers alike.
It’s this local presence that gives Nurseplus an unparalleled insight into the specific workforce dynamics in the communities we operate in. From seasonal fluctuations and regulatory changes to local authority expectations and candidate availability.
Here’s how Nurseplus can support our national care groups:
1. Consistent Staffing, Nationwide
Whether you need support in Cornwall or Cambridge, our coordinated network ensures the people in your care receive the same high standards of staff and service across your organisation. We can connect you with local teams, and you can engage with one trusted partner, while our branches deliver locally.
2. Locally Sourced, Quality Staff
We don’t rely on generic databases. Our healthcare recruitment is rooted in the communities we serve. Every nurse, care assistant or support worker is interviewed, vetted, and trained by us, locally, to ensure they meet our high standards and your care expectations
3. Rapid Response and Flexibility
By working with local teams, your group will receive quick responses to short-notice requests, which helps national providers stay ahead of staff shortages due to sickness, holidays, or occupancy changes. With a real-time understanding of local staff availability, Nurseplus can offer faster turnaround than remote or centralised services.
4. Reduced Travel Time and Better Continuity
Because we place staff close to where they live, we reduce travel times, boost staff punctuality and reliability, and improve continuity of care for your service users.
5. Compliance and Peace of Mind
Our teams are experts in CQC standards and local authority requirements. Nurseplus ensure full compliance, offers ongoing carer training, and conducts regular quality checks. All this with the aim to give national groups we work with peace of mind that their staffing partner is as committed to quality as they are.
6. A Physical Point of Contact
Sometimes, face-to-face is better, even though national care groups have central services, Nurseplus are pleased to offer local services a place to go to and a face to talk to. Our local branches operate within regular office hours, and our doors are always open for a chat about their services.
Supporting National Care Groups Through a Local Lens
As pressures mount across the sector, we believe the solution isn’t just bigger agencies, it’s better local partnerships, built on trust, quality, and responsiveness. That’s what Nurseplus offers.
