It is recommended that the group uses a shared action tracker to document and make clear the actions taken away from each meeting.
To list actionable tasks, have an action tracker document which is used at each meeting to divide the tasks and actions for different group members. This will help to clarify what tasks need to be done prior to the next meeting and who is responsible for their completion. Examples of initial tasks for community recruitment groups are:
Identify the budget and resources allocated to the recruitment group, decide frequency of meetings.
Identify each group members role and background e.g. NHS, social care, local council, local community representative.
Team leads of healthcare settings should know their current establishment – liaise with them (or have them join the group) to identify vacancies in local healthcare teams.
Each NHS locality should have a designated accountant that will be able to give staffing posts monthly; Liaise with the local accountant to access this information.
Liaise with your Health Board to ensure access to local-specific vacancy data.
