Testimonials:

1. DRC were selected as the preferred supplier for a major recruitment campaign; sourcing, recruiting and on boarding clinically qualified professionals from an international pool to work in primary care and ensure sustainability. 

It was a pleasure to work with a company that understands the workforce needs of NHS and recognised and delivered results to reduce the pressure that primary care were under.  DRC were very customer focused and always went that extra mile.  Solutions were developed that achieved best value for money.  Working with DRC was both easy and efficient and they provided excellent service during the duration of the time we worked with them.

2. Just to share a note of appreciation to DRC locums. I am glad I chose you as my agent to take me through my journey of working in the UK as a nurse. The first time I contacted you, your response was swift, clear and concise on what was required of me. You intervened in situations appropriately and gave advice as necessary. 

You made my dream come true, opened a new chapter in my life and you've become more of friends I can look up to.

I shall forever be grateful.

3. I found DRC locums a very helpful team from the very beginning of my adventure when moving to the UK. They knew all about paperwork, bureaucracy and organised the first meetings, so I could be introduced to the programme.

Especially to Dee and her team, they made sure every step was in place before I started walking.

I cannot thank enough all their support in this long way, and I absolutely recommend them to other colleagues.

4. I returned from overseas to work in the NHS at the end of 2019. The logistical requirements in relocating back into the NHS as a doctor are considerable, and I found the entire system fragmented and confusing, from the underlying application and evidence submissions, right down to reclaiming funds I was entitled to. The only easy part of the entire process was working with DRC Locums. Dee walked me through the process step by step and took away all the headaches and confusion in doing so. Both she, and all at DRC Locums, are experts at what they and it would have been much, much harder without their help.

5. Seeking to immigrate and work in the United Kingdom as a Kenyan nurse seemed like a far fetched dream. However this became a reality with DRC Locums and Blackpool Victoria Hospital. I not only got personalized guidance and attention throughout the process, but they were also there to receive me at the airport when I arrived here in the UK and followed through to ensure that I settled in well and was comfortable. The hospital is investing heavily in terms of finances and one to one coaching to ensure that I get registered with the Nursing and Midwifery Council, here in the UK. I now work in the cardiac theatres with a team that is not only interested in getting me started as a scrub nurse but looks after my welfare as well. Thank you DRC Locums and Blackpool Victoria Hospital.
