A Nursing Agency is a professional service that sources, vets, and supplies nurses to healthcare providers across Durham. We ensure every clinician is compliant, skilled, and well‑matched to the environment they’re stepping into.

We have a strict no‑umbrella and no‑self‑employed policy, ensuring you never face hidden tax risks or compliance uncertainties.

Most nurses join us by applying to the nursing jobs we advertise throughout the year.

After applying, each candidate is screened by our Nursing Agency compliance team, who confirm NMC status, references, training history, and clinical experience relevant to Durham.

Only when they meet all requirements do they join our workforce, ensuring we maintain a consistently high standard of clinical staff.

Our compliance is independently audited by Neuven each year, giving clients confidence that our procedures are not only thorough but externally verified.

Neuven reviews every aspect of our safer‑recruitment framework, including references, training, occupational health, documentation, and governance.

This ensures that our Nursing Agency in Durham continues to meet professional and regulatory expectations. With Neuven’s oversight, clients can trust that every clinician we provide has been cleared through one of the highest standards of audit available.
