Temporary people need access that ends when the job does. See how to give and remove it cleanly.
Key takeaways
- Cards with an end date
- A named sponsor
- Only the doors needed
- A clean record
01The problem
Locums, agency nurses and contractors come and go, and old cards and shared codes stay active long after they leave. That leaves doors open to people with no reason to be there. Time-limited cards, a named sponsor for each person and access that ends automatically on the last day keep the hospital safe without slowing the work.
02How it works
03What to check before you buy
| Check | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Issue routine | Name, ID, doors, end date |
| Return of cards | At the end of the job |
| Sponsor | A named staff member |
| Contractor areas | Limited to work zones |
| Maintenance | A plan, spares and a response time agreed before you buy |
| Your own requirements | Confirm them with your regulator and advisers |
