But with Lantum, Rugby Heath saw benefits from day one.  Together, Lantum and Rugby Health developed a plan for their unique context, challenges and opportunities – covering everything from IR35 regulation to maximising skill mix flexibility.  Then, once the first services were up and running, they grew them to cover more staff types and sites, even expanding to a new community centre hub.  While Lantum continues to work closely with the Rugby Health team, they’re now empowered to respond to their population’s needs, confident that they can scale new services quickly and easily.   ## The results: ### 5 new sites launched and running smoothly After successfully launching their first three Enhanced Access sites in 2022, Rugby Health expanded to five sites in 2023, seamlessly scaling the Lantum platform and their staff bank as needed.  96 people ready to work in their staff bank Rugby Health’s salaried and non-salaried multi-disciplinary staff are all united in the staff bank – including GPs, HCAs, receptionists, physios, dieticians and volunteers. Governance documents, including clinical certifications and DBS checks, are stored on Lantum too, and staff have the flexibility to work when they want.  99.5% of shifts filled successfully Rugby Health can now get the right people, in the right place, at the right time. In March 2024, 100% of advertised shifts received at least one application, and 99.5% of sessions were filled. In total, they’ve scheduled and managed over 700 hours of work so far.    ## A resilient workforce tackling health inequalities Staff noticed a difference, whether it was because they could book into shifts easier or they were spending less time on admin.  “Lantum reimagines how managing a healthcare workforce can, and should, be done,” said Gita Natarajan, Transformation Project Manager at Rugby Health. “For us, the main benefit has been reducing the administrative burden.” From compliance documents to pensions paperwork, keeping multiple sites running and compliant with IR35 and CQC requirements was a massive challenge. With Lantum, that’s all changed. “Instead of being mired in all that work, we can now focus on delivering healthcare and addressing health inequalities.”   --- About Lantum Lantum is an all-in-one workforce management platform used by 16 ICSs, 300+ PCNs and 1-in-2 GP practices to connect with their workforces.
