Practicus - Helping People Navigate Change

Practicus are a leading recruitment organisation based in the South of England. Their mantra is ‘One + Many’ the idea that individuals perform better and achieve more when supported by a team of experts. Their mission is to become the UK’s leading change specialist, supporting firms with periods of transition and their interim requirements. 

We have worked with Practicus for nearly a decade, processing both Standard and Enhanced DBS Checks. Since joining us in 2012, we have processed well over 500 DBS Checks for their interim NHS recruitment team 

Recruiting for interim roles is inherently fast-paced so recruiters can’t afford to be waiting around for DBS Checks to be completed. Personnel Checks’ streamlined, online system allows much quicker turnaround times than the DBS average of 6-8 weeks. 

Out of the 500+ checks we completed; 

• 43% completed in under 48 hours 

• 75% completed in under 7 days. 

• 84% completed in under 14 days. 

As you can see, much quicker than the 6-8 weeks quoted by the DBS! 

But it’s not just DBS Checks that we help with, a lot of our relationship is based upon the expert advice we provide. Background screening can be a complicated area of legislation at the best of times but even more so when it collides with the healthcare industry! 

Fortunately, our expert advisors are on hand to assist! With their extensive knowledge of background screening regulations in nearly every industry, they are uniquely placed to be able to assist companies like Practicus, that recruit across multiple sectors. 

Our background screening services offer an easily tailored solution that is perfect for those in the recruitment sector.
