We are Staffscanner
Staffscanner is a family-run business making a positive impact by delivering outstanding care to clients throughout Scotland and England. We have a dedicated team of professional Carers, Senior Carers and Nurses. We use innovative technology to deliver a first class service from anywhere.
Our History
Staffscanner started developing the technology to support the app.
The Staffscanner app was launched and the brand was established.
We opened our first HQ in Glasgow with 5 dedicated members of staff and provided care to our first ever client.
We supported hundreds of clients throughout the Covid-19 pandemic.
We expanded into England and opened our office in Doncaster.
We transitioned from our Staffers being self-employed to employed Staffers.
We supported the Government Kickstart program, helping people get back to work.
Our internal team grew to 50 and we moved to our new head office in Glasgow.
We received all Grade 5’s (Very Good) across all categories of care from the Care Inspectorate from our very first inspection.
Staffscanner became an approved supplier for all local authorities across Scotland.
We were selected as an approved NHS temporary staffing partner.
A note from our Founder
Reza Najafian is no stranger to the care industry. He opened a care service in Glasgow in 2013 and its main issue was finding reliable, good quality healthcare professionals. This gave him the idea of starting Staffscanner.
“Like every care service, we relied on agencies to provide staff. Not only were these agencies hugely expensive, but in my view, they lacked accountability. They were sending the first person who said yes to a shift, rather than the right person for the job.
I knew there had to be a better way. Our app turns this model on its head. Care providers can post shifts, outlining the type of skills and experience they need. We charge care homes considerably less than traditional agencies, so the carers and nurses get a better rate.
The most important thing of all is that care services get the right person for the job, improve the quality of care and don’t waste money in the process.”

What people say about Staffscanner
Fantastic
Only been with Staffscanner for a short time but they are fantastic. Helpful, approachable and always cheery on the phone. I’m getting my 3 weekly shifts with no problem!
Excellent Company
Excellent company to work for. You pick up shifts that suit you. The staff are always supportive and helpful. The agency doesn’t push you to do shifts as others do. I’m pleased that I joined Staffscanner as I feel valued.
Staff Are Great
I have been working with this company for over 3 months now and what a fantastic agency to work for. Nothing is a problem for them when you need help, the staff are great! I would recommend them to all health care workers.
