This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or Parliament is responsible for.

Decisions about using agency staff is an operational matter for the NHS, not the Government or Parliament. As a result it is not possible for the Government or Parliament to take the action you have requested.
