Cygnet Health Care save £77,000 in 6 months!

Cygnet Health Care were the first company to exploit my approach to integrating database systems and SMS technology. In 6 months they slashed their agency bill by £77,000.

Cygnet Health Care is one of the fastest growing private mental health care companies in the UK. Staffing costs are a significant, if not the most significant, expenditure in private health care, and staff sickness, absenteeism and shortages can drive up temping recruitment agency costs. By integrating SMS technology with a bespoke database system in order to text shifts to their own bank/casual workers, Cygnet Health Care reckon they have saved £77,000 on agency costs in the first 6 months of running this system.
