1 in 14 people in the UK lives with diabetes, a condition which must be carefully managed if sufferers are to live full, healthy lives.

It’s no secret that there is currently shortage of care staff in the UK, so making sure that all of your shifts are fulfilled is more difficult than ever. But to deliver the highest standards of care there is simply no alternative. Agency staff can be a good way of smoothing over any temporary shortfalls and guarantee quality care is maintained.

So what can a Care Provider do to make sure all of these critical needs are met?
Fortunately, the Care Hires system was designed to bring together care providers with staff agencies specifically in order to meet these needs. The system aims to provide users with
- 100% staff shift fulfilment, no more staffing gaps
- 100% staff compliance, all staff are pre-vetted and fully qualified
- 100% matched criteria, the person you select is the one you get
