Streamlined compliance: Easing the locum journey


We understand that navigating compliance requirements can be daunting, especially for first-timers. Our dedicated team, including Ryan and Kate, takes pride in simplifying this process, ensuring a smooth and stress-free experience for our doctors. Their efforts have earned praise from locums like Dr. Sarah N, who recently shared:
"Locuming can feel daunting for the first time, but Jon & Jon, particularly Ryan and Kate, have made the process seamless. They have been attentive to my needs/wants for locum work and are excellent with communication with myself and a wide range of services Australia-wide. Highly recommend it."

July was a successful month for the locum psychiatry desk, with Tasmania emerging as a key area of opportunity. We're proud to connect skilled psychiatrists with rewarding locum assignments across Australia, and we look forward to continued growth in this sector.
