Peak in sickness resulted in higher bank and locum worker spend
Covering staff absences in January cost Manx Care more than £800,000.
The figure was revealed at the healthcare provider's latest board meeting.
The health service had to use bank and locum workers to keep its services going while staff were off ill.
Finance Director Jackie Lawless says a spike in sick leave is to blame for the additional spend:
