Lantum is a workforce management platform that makes it easier for healthcare providers to mobilise their workforce, and for clinicians to work more flexibly. Our Connected Scheduling platform gives you a staff bank, rota tool and a clinician network all in one place to improve fill rates, cut admin time, and reduce costs. We started life as Network Locum in 2012. While working as part of the NHS London Transformation team, Lantum CEO Melissa Morris saw firsthand how inefficiencies in staffing were drastically affecting the quality of care available to patients in the Primary Care system. Melissa knew that by using technology to break down the barriers between practice managers who need to fill vacant sessions and GPs looking for a more flexible way of working, patients would see an increase in the quality of care they were receiving. We’re a small, but rapidly growing, team based in the heart of London’s start-up scene. With our innovative tech we’re working with healthcare professionals to lead the way in tackling staffing inefficiencies in our healthcare system.
