Experience tells us that what clients want from a locum agency is:

• Quick, efficient service from a consultant they can trust
  
• Knowledgeable consultants that are available when you need them.
  
• A high fill rate (i.e. an agency that fills most of the gaps you can't)
  
• Good quality locum who turn up on time and know the systems
  
• An audit trail for all bookings.
