Kare Plus Secures Framework in Support of the NHS

Kare Plus is pleased to announce their latest contract award which will see the organisation support the NHS with their temporary staffing needs under the National Framework for Provision of Clinical and Healthcare Staffing.

The acquisition of this framework was fundamental to the ongoing growth and development of the Kare Plus brand. It forms part of a strong partnership with the framework itself, bringing together several public sector organisations to become the biggest public procurement organisation in the UK, with a contract value of £3.2billiion across all lots.

The framework term is set to run for a period of three years with options to extend for up to a further year and will see Kare Plus collaborating with the NHS supporting a sustainable workforce that is compliant and cost-effective.

The award of this framework comes at a time of great importance for the NHS as the United Kingdom continues in its pursuit to overcome the COVID-19 pandemic. The framework will see Kare Plus continue to support NHS trusts across the United Kingdom with temporary staffing solutions, supporting in times of sickness and staffing shortages.

Steve Welsh, Founder and Chairman for Kare Plus said: “Our investment into this framework is a significant step in our continued efforts to support the National Health Service and with it, the public sector. By working with the NHS Workforce Alliance under this national framework, we are proud to continue to support the NHS with their future recruitment strategies. By working in partnership, we will continue to help NHS trusts to improve efficiency, save money, and find effective staffing solutions. Such strategies partner with our ambition to continue to support a sustainable NHS workforce model which can continue to provide quality well lead care for all”.

The framework will be operated through the company’s chain of corporate sites, headed from within the organisation's centre of excellence in Telford, Shropshire where the company plans to continue to evolve and develop in support of this latest framework.

Steve Welsh continued, “As a brand, it is the sole mission of Kare Plus to ensure that everyone receives a continuation of care that is founded on quality and exceptional standards. The acquisition of this framework is a testimonial to our ability as a care provider to do just that”.
