Your Insourcing Partner: How We Can Help Reduce Your Waitlist

It’s no secret that the UK healthcare industry is struggling with backlogs, missed targets and long patient waiting times, which is largely due to demand outstripping supply. To combat this glaring issue, the industry needs to find an effective, efficient solution to plug gaps and deliver care in a more optimised way. Insourcing is becoming increasingly popular as a viable way to put the industry back on track, but it takes a competent insourcing partner to roll this out well. In this article, we’ll learn how Globe Workforce Solutions can act as your insourcing partner and discuss how we can help reduce your waitlist.

What is Insourcing in Healthcare?

Insourcing, in the context of healthcare, involves partnering with specialised organisations that provide clinical support services directly within your facility. Unlike outsourcing, where services are contracted out often to numerous external providers, insourcing brings experts into your healthcare teams, typically from a single partner. This approach helps to augment existing resources, extend clinical capacities, and reduce the burden on your staff, all within the familiar operational framework of your organisation.

Globe Workforce Solutions serves as a key link in this chain, providing skilled professionals who integrate seamlessly into your teams to enhance service delivery and patient care. Our expertise in insourcing can provide the right skills and workforce to a wide range of specialisms in healthcare, ensuring that healthcare facilities can better manage day-to-day operations without feeling overburdened.

Specialised Services Offered by Globe Workforce Solutions

One of the main ways we support healthcare organisations is by providing specially insourced staff where they are needed most. In doing this, we open up healthcare services to patients, which has the impactful effect of bringing down patient waiting times and eliminating backlogs for facilities. With our support, your healthcare institution can operate in a more lean, optimised and effective way - helping you meet targets and improve patient outcomes. Below are some of the specialised services we offer at GWS:

Audiology

Hearing impairments can significantly impact the quality of life, making timely access to audiological evaluations and interventions a high priority. Our insourcing solutions in audiology include providing experienced audiologists who can conduct comprehensive assessments, fit hearing aids and offer rehabilitative services. By integrating our specialists into your teams, we help reduce the backlog of patients awaiting audiological services, thus speeding up the process from diagnosis to treatment.

Clinical Physiology

Clinical physiology is essential in assessing and managing a variety of conditions that affect physiological functions. Our clinical physiologists are adept at conducting and interpreting tests related to cardiovascular, respiratory, and neurological systems. By insourcing our clinical physiologists, your healthcare facility can expand its diagnostic capabilities, providing faster and more accurate assessments. This enables quicker initiation of treatments, helping to reduce waiting times for critical diagnostic procedures and improving overall patient care efficiency.

Radiotherapy

For cancer treatment facilities, the availability of radiotherapy services is often a bottleneck due to the complex nature of treatment and the need for highly specialised equipment and personnel. Globe Workforce Solutions provides highly trained radiotherapists and support staff to assist in managing increased patient loads, especially during peak times or when your equipment or staff are overstretched.

Sonography

Diagnostic imaging is an important first step in the treatment of many conditions. Our sonographers are proficient in using ultrasonic imaging devices to produce diagnostic images and conduct tests, aiding in the rapid diagnosis and treatment planning for patients. With our sonographers on board, your facility can increase the number of imaging sessions conducted daily, thereby reducing the waiting period for critical diagnostic services.

Speech and Language Therapy

Speech and language therapy is key for patients recovering from strokes, brain injuries, or those dealing with congenital issues affecting speech. Our therapists are experienced in a variety of therapeutic techniques to help improve communication abilities and swallowing dysfunctions. Insourcing this specialism enables quicker, targeted interventions that can significantly enhance recovery rates and patient quality of life.

Benefits of Partnering with Globe Workforce Solutions

At GWS, we believe that insourcing is the best approach to improving the healthcare industry by reducing backlogs across the board. There are plenty of other benefits associated with using our services that make partnering with us hugely beneficial. These benefits include:

Insourcing with Globe Workforce Solutions is a cost-effective alternative to traditional staffing models. It reduces the need for overtime expenditures and the costs associated with service delays and extended patient wait times.

Focus on Patient Care

With our support, your core team can focus more on patient care rather than the pressures of understaffing and administrative burdens. This shift in focus is essential for improving overall patient satisfaction and outcomes.
