Freedom of Information Request: 0439 2019/20
I am writing to you under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 to request the following information from the NHS.
I would like you to send me the locum agency spend in the AHP/HSS division of the hospital for Occupational Therapists and Physiotherapists in acute settings as well as the community. I would like to know the spend for 2018, also including the amount of locums that this refers to per month, broken down on a monthly basis. In the breakdown if you could please include the agencies that provide the locums also broken down numerically.
Ideally this would read as below –
January 2018 – £20k Community – £16k Acute
Sugarmans – Occupational Therapists x 3
Just OT – Occupational Therapists x 2
RIG – Physiotherapists x 2
Maxxima – Physiotherapists x 2
Sugarmans – Physiotherapists x 2
Then a breakdown all the way to as present as possible.
If you could provide this either in a PDF or excel format.
Please see attached document – please note that we cannot provide the breakdown of data by staff group prior to May 2019, due to a change in use of system.
