It’s great news that the UK finally has its COVID-19 vaccination programme underway. Despite a difficult year for the healthcare sector (among many others), there is light at the end of the tunnel. But as we say goodbye to 2020 and what has undoubtedly been one of the most challenging years the public health sector has ever had to face, many hurdles remain in the fight against this deadly disease. 

It’s been well-publicised that the NHS is beginning its much-anticipated vaccination programme with the elderly (over 80s in the first instance), care home residents and frontline healthcare workers: in other words, those at greatest risk of contracting the disease and falling seriously ill. 

It’s now critical that the NHS delivers its large-scale programme without negatively impacting on other essential services. But it’s no small undertaking: the logistics involved in recruiting sufficient properly trained staff to the vaccination programme, whilst simultaneously continuing to manage the delivery of all other vital healthcare services, requires extensive planning and support. 

The vaccination programme is likely to continue for at least another 6 months, with the least vulnerable in society being the last to receive this crucial vaccine. During that time, thousands of people will be drafted in, not just to administer the vaccine but also to support the programme, manage appointments, co-ordinate logistics and manage the vaccine supply chain.

In order to meet these staffing demands and ensure that the majority of the population receives the vaccine as soon as possible, the NHS will need to turn to partners, volunteers and the private sector. This will place additional demands on clinicians, in addition to HR departments and recruiters within the sector.

3 Reasons Providers Fail CQC Inspections

1
“No system to ensure all staff have full pre-employment checks completed”
2
“Failure to deploy adequate numbers of suitably qualified staff”
3
“No system in place to review and communicate role-specific training or policies to staff”

Are you CQC ready?

Yes
No
1. Do you think there is there a link between staffing and the ability to deliver safe, effective services?
2. Do you have any digital tools, such as online staff management, that can help get the right people on duty at the right time?
3. Can you automate key aspects of employee onboarding to ensure the right mix of skills is available within your teams?
4. Can you evidence documents, DBS checks, right to work checks, certifications, training records, policies and reporting for CQC inspectors?
5. Is all your documentation regularly kept up to date?
6. Do your staff understand their responsibilities and how well can they link their work back to current guidelines and best practices?
7. Can you evidence that policies are communicated to staff and they are read and understood?
8. Do you have a digital document management system in place to ‘send and sign’ new or amended policies or documents to staff?
9. Do you record staff training and development that you can show CQC inspectors?
10. Can you provide clear evidence of how you are developing and improving your services?
