Clinical staffing requires trust. Our compliance approach is designed to help clients make informed decisions, reduce avoidable risk and ensure locum clinicians are appropriately checked before placement.
Key Stone Locums coordinates compliance evidence relevant to the role and client requirements. Final acceptance of a clinician remains subject to the client’s own governance, policies and approval process, but our aim is to reduce friction by collecting and organising the key information needed for a safe placement.
| Compliance area | What this may include |
|---|---|
| Identity and right to work | Proof of identity, right to work evidence and relevant personal details for booking records. |
| Professional registration | NMC, GPhC, GMC or other relevant registration checks depending on clinical role. |
| Qualifications and training | Role-specific qualifications, mandatory training, Basic Life Support and relevant clinical certificates where required. |
| DBS and safeguarding | DBS evidence and safeguarding training information in line with the client’s requirements. |
| Immunisation and occupational health | Evidence such as Hepatitis B immunity, occupational health clearance or vaccination records where applicable. |
| References and work history | Professional references, recent work history and suitability notes depending on placement type. |
We screen for role suitability, availability, experience, travel practicality and whether the candidate understands the requirement.
We coordinate the agreed compliance evidence and highlight anything outstanding so the client has a clear view before confirming start details.
We remain available for booking queries, communication issues, extension discussions and support where further documentation is requested.
For primary care, the right clinician must be both clinically capable and operationally suitable. Our compliance process supports that standard by combining documentation checks with practical recruitment judgement.
