Our Approach
Thorough Preparation
Medical Solutions Strike Staffing prepares well in advance of the potential work stoppage. Upon completion of a staffing contract, our team of recruiters and clinical managers work in a coordinated effort with hospital administration to determine the required staff levels by unit.
Stellar Execution
We manage the recruitment, screening, transportation, housing, and scheduling of qualified workers. We immediately begin recruiting from our national database of workers and making plans to staff your facility well in advance of a job action, and maintain a "stand-by" posture throughout our contract.
Managed Cost and Quality Control
Medical Solutions Strike Staffing can replace your staff at a greatly reduced number of workers and yet maintain the appropriate hours or six 12-hour shifts per week, and yet remain well rested and able to function at peak capacity.
Great Documentation
Medical Solutions Strike Staffing understands your requirements to meet state and federal standards for healthcare personnel. Therefore, we provide you with a complete employee file for future use for Joint Commission inspections and state health department reviews.
