An app idea for independent pharmacies.

What the search found

Who pays
Pharmacy owner who hires locums
The problem
A locum walks in cold, works the shift, and leaves. The next day the regular staff find unresolved issues with no record of what was promised or who was called.
The gap
The locum products in the results are recruitment marketplaces in Canada and the UK. None of them handle the handover note between the locum and the permanent team.
Already out there
  • Relief Guru reliefguru.com

    Canadian locum shift marketplace. Fills shifts and handles pay. Does not capture what happened during the shift.

  • PharmaConex rocketreach.co

    UK and European pharmacy recruitment and locum provision. Recruitment only, no shift handover record.

People asking for it
The big assumption
Owners will pay for a handover note when they already tolerate the current mess.
Test it this week
Ask three owners who use locums what went wrong after the last locum shift and whether they would pay to prevent it.
