The new RM6281 Clinical and Healthcare Staffing framework is a renewal of the present NHS Workforce Alliance Clinical Staffing framework RM6161. RM6281 builds upon the previous framework, with the following benefits:
- Suppliers listed on the framework have been assessed on their capacity and capability to deliver services in the NHS and the wider public sector
- Greater alignment in staffing frameworks. Clinical and non-clinical staff can now be sourced by our customers using the same terms and conditions. The new framework contains revised terms on transfer fees and notice periods which offers fair and transparent operating procedures for both customers and suppliers
- Creation of a fair, sustainable and transparent mechanism for cap pricing and escalation with framework. This offers customers a viable alternative to non-framework supply
- Improved navigation within the framework. NHS colleagues/customers can easily identify suppliers who have a proven track record in vendor and managed services, or who have experience in sourcing specialised clinical roles
- It is a nationwide agreement available to NHS and wider public sector organisations within England
- It is an easy framework to navigate with a mix of large and small suppliers offering services from transactional temporary staffing to complex longer-term delivery models
- The framework has the flexibility to be used by individual customers, ICS/ICB or larger consortiums
- All suppliers have been assessed on providing qualified clinical staff which meet the requirements of the NHS. Customers have the assurance that the clinical staff sourced will be compliant with NHS Employers and be able to deliver high quality patient care
