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

Future-Proofing Your Practice-1

By moving their 7 sites onto Locate a Locum, CEO Tanzil Ahmed transformed a 4-hour weekly "firefighting" session into just 60 minutes of streamlined management.

 

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

"I can justify the platform cost all day long just by the value of my own time... my biggest saving is time." - Tanzil Ahmed, CEO & Co-Founder
