With Flu Season Approaching and the Pandemic Not Going Away, Hiring Temporary and Permanent Staff Can Help to Reduce Risk and Promote Patient Safety

It’s no secret that during an unprecedented time like this the administrative work involved in screening and credentialing new hires can be a burden in an already taxed physician office. What if there was a way to make this cumbersome process easier?

Favorite Healthcare Staffing has earned the Joint Commission’s Gold Seal assuring that due diligence screening of every candidate is complete before new staff step into your office. Since the start of the response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Favorite has worked with the Massachusetts Department of Public Health to provide added support placing 180 nurses, nurses aids, and staff for over 50 nursing homes within the state. One of the Human Resources managers for a mental health agency said that they found Favorite Staffing to be professional, responsive, and extremely reliable during the onset of and throughout the COVID-19 crisis, and that they would not hesitate to work with Favorite again.​

The importance of ensuring proper credentialing, training, and skills is paramount in supporting a safe environment for patients. We are proud that our affiliated partner was able to provide this support to our state during this unprecedented time. Favorite not only provide temporary nursing staff but also can place physicians, nurses, and allied health professionals in permanent positions. They do the leg work in accordance with Joint Commission standards; this includes credentialing, skills assessment, testing, and more, as outlined in their hiring practices, ensuring that candidates for both permanent positions are fully qualified.

Favorite’s placement team makes hiring painless, so you can focus on what matters — choosing the right candidate and ensuring adequate staffing levels.

Preferred pricing for Massachusetts Medical Society members.
