Healthcare services provider on the up

Healthcare services provider Totally has reported a rise in turnover and profits.

According to unaudited interim results for the six months ended 30 September, group turnover grew by 14.1% to £70.3 million, while gross profit was up 2.6% to £11.9 million and profit before tax sat at £1 million.

During the six months the business delivered services to approximately 1.25 million patients and was awarded extensions to 15 existing urgent care contracts amounting to £37 million in value.

Bob Holt OBE, chairman of the Derby-based firm, said: “The operating environment has continued to be challenging for everyone in healthcare, and as the winter months approach, cases of Covid-19 and seasonal flu are, as expected, on the increase.

“This brings both opportunities and challenges for the group. Totally has a strong track record of managing services in difficult conditions and was established to support the NHS in the management of demand fluctuations just like this.

“We remain committed to the delivery of high-quality, responsive services that support our partners, the NHS and commissioners.

“The scale of the opportunity remains significant, with demand outstripping supply and waiting lists continuing to sit at all-time highs.”
