Case Study: city Residential Care Staffing Support

Client Profile

A medium-sized residential care home group operating three facilities across city, providing elderly and dementia care services.

The Challenge

Following a CQC inspection requiring increased staffing levels, the client needed to recruit 15 additional care staff across multiple sites within 30 days. High local competition for healthcare workers and lengthy traditional recruitment processes made this timeline challenging.

Our Solution

We implemented a multi-faceted approach: immediate temporary staff to cover immediate gaps, a rapid recruitment campaign for permanent roles, and a temp-to-perm model allowing trial periods before permanent offers. Our local knowledge helped target candidates living near each facility.

The Result

Within 25 days, we placed 18 qualified care staff across the three facilities (3 more than required). 12 were permanent hires, 6 started as temporary with 4 converting to permanent within 8 weeks. The client passed their follow-up CQC inspection with improved staffing ratings.

"

Carer Agency understood our urgent needs and delivered quality staff quickly. Their local knowledge meant candidates were genuinely interested in working at our specific locations, not just taking any job. The temp-to-perm approach gave us confidence in our permanent hires."
