Doctor-staffing startups boom in usage as healthcare systems scramble to respond to the pandemic

Locum's Nest, which connects locum clinicians to available shifts, has launched a dashboard to help NHS trusts allocate staff where they are needed most. The company says it has seen a 38% month-to-month spike.

Apart from Locum's Nest, other UK startups include Patchwork Health and Lantum. All three have reported spikes in usage in recent weeks as NHS trusts upload specific COVID-19 shifts. It's thought that as much as a quarter of staff working COVID-19 shifts will need to self-isolate due to coming into close proximity with patients, often without protective equipment. Locum's Nest is offering its services to the NHS for free during this period.
