Health and Safety Training - Ben Smith, Portsmouth PCT:

“I am writing to express my gratitude for the health and safety training  provided by ParkHill at short notice to Portsmouth City Teaching Primary Care Trust. The training was of the highest standard and was well received by all attendees. They remarked on the trainer’s professionalism and amiable manner, which encouraged very interactive sessions. It is always important for us to break the preconceptions that training in statutory areas will be 'dry'. In my opinion, it requires a skilled trainer who can tailor extensive knowledge to suggest examples of application in the roles of his audience (always very varied for a PCT). The trainer was always very punctual and helpful above and beyond my expectations.”

Paul Wratten, Director of Finance, The Hillingdon Hospital NHS Trust

“ParkHill continues to provide us with a first class service. It’s a pleasure to work with their auditors who combine technical expertise with a detailed understanding of the NHS. ParkHill’s support is very much part of our strategy for ensuring that our organisation continues its track record of good financial governance.”

Interim Executive Recruitment - Malcolm London, candidate (placed at Surrey PCT):

“I have a good relationship with ParHill’s recruitment consultants. They have been very supportive and most of all honest. They have good contacts throughout the NHS and have endeavored to find appropriate placements for me, meeting my work and location requirements. They also show a good knowledge of the candidates on their books making me feel that they are working to find the best match of organisation to candidate. Thanks for not being on the phone all the time hassling too! I have and will continue to recommend ParkHill to prospective candidates and organisations looking for candidates.”

Health and Safety Consultancy - Martin Curry, Head of Risk and Assurance, South West Essex PCT:

ParkHill has provided a variety of Health and Safety support services for 3 neighbouring PCTs over the past two years. These organisations have since merged to form South West Essex PCT.  ParkHill’s support compliments our current arrangements and enables us to cost-effectively acquire additional resources to ensure that our health and safety responsibilities are met.  We value ParkHill’s quick response to identifying and addressing health and safety risks and incidents, and its ability to draw on expertise covering a wide range of health and safety disciplines. ParkHill’s advisors have built good relations with many of our Senior Managers, H&S committee members and relevant staff across the organisation.  They conduct their work with enthusiasm and dedication and I would not hesitate to recommend their services.

Security Management - Andy Jones, Partnership Inspector Hillingdon Borough:

“I am a Police Inspector working on Hillingdon Borough, where I have been working with ParkHill’s Local Security Management Specialist Mr Barry Palmer. We have worked closely to reduce crime, disorder and anti-social behaviour at the Trust’s hospitals on the Borough. I have found Barry to be an enthusiastic and supportive individual who has fully engaged in all that we have strived to achieve. I know that many of the senior administrators within the Trust have also been impressed with his commitment and professionalism. With Barry’s help we have been able to improve the working environment at both the sites on this Borough and made many of the Trust’s employees feel safer and better valued. Please accept my sincere thanks for the support ParkHill has given.”

Client Praise for a ParkHill Candidate - Judy Hillier, Director of Clinical and Community Services, Portsmouth City Teaching PCT

“Jacquie has been  a great asset to the team, her energy and expertise in the areas she is working in is welcomed and her attitude and style is well accepted by staff.  The Provider function of the PCT has made a good deal of progress in the time she has worked with us and she is a valued member of the team.”

Personal Safety Training - Course Delegate, Services for Older People, Northwick Park Hospital:

“I think this has been a really useful course. It has given me a lot to think about concerning situations in my working life in which my behaviour has escalated rather than diffused situations of conflict. I am looking forward to putting my new skills into practice.”
