The Challenge: Compliance Is Non-Negotiable in Acute Healthcare
In an acute hospital environment, being compliant is not optional. Patient safety, infection control, safeguarding and service continuity all depend on a workforce that meets strict regulatory and governance standards at all times.
For many years, a large acute hospital has partnered with 3Q Recruitment, a trusted Irish recruitment agency with over 25 years’ experience, to supply a fully compliant, safe and reliable temporary workforce across catering, cleaning and support services.
The hospital required more than staffing cover. It needed people-first compliance that could stand up to HIQA inspections, HSE governance requirements and internal audits.
Confidence Built on People-First Compliance
From the hospital’s perspective, a compliant workforce is foundational to safe care delivery.
All temporary staff supplied by 3Q Recruitment are:
- 100% Garda vetted
- Identity and reference checked
- Fully compliant with healthcare recruitment standards in Ireland
- Cleared to work only after completing mandatory training and onboarding
This people-first compliant approach ensures that every worker placed on site is prepared, supported and accountable, not just “available”
Mandatory Training Aligned to Acute Hospital Standards
Before deployment, each temporary worker completes up to 16 mandatory and role-specific training modules, aligned with acute healthcare requirements, including:
- Infection Prevention & Control (AMRIC)
- Hand Hygiene
- PPE in Acute Healthcare Settings
- Safeguarding Adults at Risk
- Children First
- IDDSI
- Chemical Safety
- Dignity at Work
This structured training framework provides the hospital with assurance that temporary staff understand clinical environments, patient safety responsibilities and professional conduct from day one.
Quality Assurance That Stands Up to Inspection
The hospital benefits from audit-ready, inspection-ready compliant processes across every stage of engagement:
- Sourcing and screening
- Garda vetting and documentation
- Onboarding and induction
- Training verification
- Ongoing deployment and review
All records, including vetting, training and personal data — are managed in line with GDPR, HIQA standards and HSE governance requirements.
Regular site engagement, spot checks and ongoing reviews ensure that compliance is maintained over time, not treated as a one-off exercise.
Safe Staffing and Service Continuity
Through this partnership, the hospital has access to a consistent panel of fully trained and vetted temporary staff, enabling:
- Safe cover for annual leave and sickness
- Rapid response to vacancies and peaks in demand
- Continuity of service in non-clinical but critical support areas
This reduces pressure on permanent teams, protects patient care and supports workforce stability in a high-demand acute setting.
