In Allied Health recruitment, nothing matters more than compliance. Every professional placed must be fully qualified, properly vetted and safe to work with vulnerable patients. But in high-pressure healthcare settings, hiring delays can be just as damaging as compliance failures.
At Hunter Gatherer AHP, we know healthcare providers cannot afford to choose between speed and safety. That is why we have built a compliance-first process that delivers fully vetted Allied Health Professionals quickly, without compromise.
Why Compliance Is Non-Negotiable
Whether it is a physiotherapist working with stroke patients, a pharmacist dispensing critical medication or a radiographer performing diagnostics, every AHP plays a vital clinical role. One gap in compliance can put patients, teams and reputations at risk.
That is why we follow strict, standardised vetting across all placements, including:
- Enhanced DBS checks and annual update service registration
- HCPC or GPhC registration verification
- Mandatory training to NHS standards
- Right to work checks in line with Home Office requirements
- Occupational health screening, including immunisation clearance
- Minimum of two verified professional references
- Identity and qualification verification
Our compliance processes are regularly audited and we are fully aligned with NHS Workforce Alliance, HealthTrust Europe and other leading frameworks.
Fast Turnaround, No Corners Cut
We understand that healthcare providers need speed. Delays in recruitment can result in service backlogs, missed targets and increased pressure on permanent teams. That is why we have designed our compliance workflows to be both thorough and efficient.
Here is how we do it:
Pre-Compliance and Talent Readiness
Our candidates are vetted in advance, so when a request comes in, we are ready to respond. Many of our Allied Health Professionals are registered with us on an ongoing basis, meaning we can act fast without repeating the process.
In-House Compliance Experts
Our compliance team works side-by-side with our consultants to ensure documents, references and training are completed swiftly and correctly. Nothing is outsourced or left to chance.
Digital Processes
We use secure, streamlined platforms to speed up documentation and verification. Candidates can upload documents and complete training through user-friendly systems, reducing time to hire.
Continuous Monitoring
We do not stop after placement. Our team tracks expiry dates, renewals and updates to ensure every professional remains compliant throughout their assignment.
