PROVISION OF AGENCY STAFF (Infirmary) TO THE ROYAL HOSPITAL CHELSEA
STATEMENT OF REQUIREMENT
The role of the Royal Hospital Chelsea (RHC) is to provide a fitting home and community for its In-Pensioners (IPs), to whom the nation owes a debt of gratitude.
To ensure safe and effective care for the Margaret Thatcher Infirmary residents, the Royal Hospital Chelsea will occasionally require qualified Nurses and Care assistants to maintain the required staffing levels on each shift.
Care Staff will be allocated in line with the terms and conditions set out by the Royal Hospital. The appointed agency must provide the RHC with a completed proforma including a recent photograph of agency staff available and ensuring all training / certifications remain in date. At no times will the Royal Hospital accept agency staff that do not meet these criteria.
It is preferred that carers and registered nurses provided are maintained as much as possible for continuity with the residents. The Contractor is only to supply agency staff as and when ordered by the contract administrator.
The Royal Hospital Chelsea will require an estimated 3500 hours a year of agency care with the main bulk of this being carers. In extremis RNA cover should not exceed more than 500 hours, and regular reporting should take place with the contract administrator to discuss the performance of the agreement. RNA cover will remain on an ad-hoc basis and the Royal hospital Chelsea will retain flexibility to source this cover from outside the agreement if required.
