Behind the Scenes at Hippo 🦛
What Actually Happens When You Call Us
When you call Hippo Staffing Solutions, the work doesn’t start at the placement, it starts long before.
Here’s what actually happens behind the scenes:
We listen
We take time to understand the person, the setting, and the level of care required... not just the shift details.
In-house recruitment, done properly
Every candidate is personally interviewed by our in-house recruitment team. We use person-centred interview questions and are selective about who we hire. We focus on values, empathy, and a genuine passion for care, not just experience on paper.
A full onboarding & training process
Our carers go through extensive onboarding, including face-to-face, practical training, not just online modules. This ensures they’re confident, competent, and prepared before stepping into any care environment.
We match, not assign
Skills, personality, experience, and continuity all matter. We carefully match carers to clients to protect everyone involved.
Compliance without compromise
Safeguarding, checks, training records, and documentation are non-negotiable. Quality and safety come first.
Ongoing support
Our involvement doesn’t stop once a shift is filled. We stay connected with both carers and clients to make sure standards remain high.
Because we believe that care isn’t just about outcomes, it’s about doing things the right way, every step of the journey.
