##### Challenges faced by You

- **Unreliable booking processes:** Current booking systems could be inefficient and disorganised.

- **High agency fees:** Using traditional locum agencies is expensive, cutting into practice budgets.
- **Difficulties in direct engagement:** It's challenging to directly connect and book temporary staff without an intermediary.
- **Speed of securing staff:** The existing methods are slow, making it hard to quickly fill last-minute staffing gaps.
- Unreliable cover: Booking locums ad hoc means less familiarity with your practice, increasing risk to service quality
- Services pressure: Uncovered shifts directly impact your ability to deliver services
- Admin burden: Managing summer cover manually takes time your team doesn't have

##### How LAL can help

- Access to 50K+ locums: The largest pool of pre-vetted, compliant locums in the UK - giving you options even when demand is high
- 93% shift fill rate: Reliable cover when you need it, not just when it's convenient
- Fixed monthly cost: No agency markups or last-minute rate spikes - your summer staffing cost is predictable from day one
- Pre-vetted for your practice: Locums who already know your systems and processes, reducing onboarding friction
- Sort it now, forget it for summer: Get your cover confirmed before the crunch hits and free your team to focus on patient care

## The impact was immediate:

- ## 75% less admin - from 4 hours to 1 hour per week
- ## 12 hours saved monthly - redirected to higher-value work
- ## Faster gap filling - shifts filled in 30–60 minutes
