Here’s what we ask our locum tenens staffing clients to ensure we can help them maximize their permanent physicians’ happiness while reducing burnout rates: We ask our clients how often our locums share lunch breaks with their permanent colleagues. We ask if we can see how well our locums do with their EMR documentation work and patient interactions compared to their facility’s full-time staff. And then we work to ensure our locums match these parameters as much as possible. Results? Not only are we proud that we help our clients reduce their permanent team members’ burnout rates, but we’re also finding that our locums report greater satisfaction with their assignments. #WinWin #LocumTenensRecruiters #HealthcareStaffing

Using locum tenens professionals at your hospital/medical facility is far more than filling random gaps in scheduling. Nope. It’s how your employees feel on their Sunday morning rounds when your perm hospitalist knows he finally has some real backup if his children get sick. It’s also that moment when you director of your emergency department stops obsessively worrying about next month’s schedule. As well as when your anesthesiologist knows without a doubt that she can attend her daughter’s graduation without guilt. And let’s not forget: it’s also about how your neurologist doesn’t have to check his phone every 10 minutes during his vacation. Staffing with locums is more than just a terrific scheduling solution. It’s also ensuring life-changing moments for your permanent staff. Finally, at 3 a.m., knowing there’s reliable patient coverage is far more than “staffing metrics.” It’s human dignity, because you’re treating your healthcare pros like people – with families, personal lives, worries, hopes, dreams, etc. – first. Locum tenens staffing support: it’s peace of mind in scrubs. #LocumTenensRecruiter #HealthcareStaffing #LocumTenens

Do you think your weekend hospitalist coverage is set? You may want to rethink that: while many hospitals and healthcare facilities scramble when they find they have last-minute staffing gaps (and/or burned-out healthcare pros), the best-performing hospitals leverage strategic locum coverage to make sure they provide uninterrupted patient care. Try this strategic approach; · Plan your coverage three months out. · Provide your permanent staff with predictable schedules. · Maintain quality metrics (even on weekends and holidays). · Keep your permanent healthcare teams energized. How can you do so? Talk to us about booking summer/holiday placements NOW!

You have a big problem if you rely only on your rural healthcare facility’s permanent staff in your emergency department: your doctors and other healthcare pros are burning out from too much holiday/weekend coverage when patient numbers keep increasing. This isn’t about the headache of scheduling: it’s about how sustainable your ED can be as well as the mental and physical health of your permanent staff because if your team members are always maxed out on coverage, the quality of your patient care undoubtedly suffers. Yet many hospitals – rural, suburban and urban – resist bringing in locums, seeing them as “backup” rather than a strategic staffing answer. But what if locums were used as more than stopgaps? Instead, what if you used them deliberately to prevent burnout/maintain quality of care? Everyone wins: your permanent staff get some breathing room/respite and your patients enjoy consistent emergency care coverage. Could it be time to rethink how you use locums? #PhysicianStaffing #LocumTenens #HealthcareStaffing

Two tips to follow to help you get the “best locums” from a locums recruiting company: 1) List your reporting preferences regarding quality metrics: the best locum staffing companies will adjust their own documentation to match. 2) Let the locum company know about your patient demographics’ unique needs. Since cultural alignment is often is as important as locums’ clinical skills, this will help ensure your patients receive the kind of care they expect. Skip the “standard” list of requirements: details such as these help ensure the locum recruiters send you exceptional talent based on YOUR unique needs. #LocumsRecruiters #HealthcareStaffing #LocumTenensStaffing

Three terrific “insider” tips we want to give you to help you find a terrific locum tenens staffing company 1) Ask about its locums’ EMR scores. This is because the better locum recruiters test and rank their locums on multiple platforms, not just their particular healthcare expertise. 2) Ask for its “same-facility return rate.” This will tell you how often the staffing company’s locums get invited back by facilities at which they worked. 3) Ask if they provide “cultural” briefings to their locums. The top locum agencies prep their locums for each facility’s ways of communicating and “ways of doing.” The usual “quality” metrics don’t tell the full story. Asking for the above focuses on the “lesser-known” indicators of a locum recruiting company’s quality. We look forward to YOUR questions about US! #LocumTenensRecruiters #LocumTenensStaffing #MedicalRecruiters

Three “'If you do this, then this will happen” outcomes you could enjoy when you use locum tenens: 1) If you pair locums with professionals in different subspecialties, then you’ve just created natural cross-training opportunities for your permanent team members. 2) If you rotate locums throughout several departments, then you’ll see inconsistencies in processes/procedures that your permanent staff may have “normalized.” 3) If you bring locums in during quality meetings, then you likely will gain terrific “outsider” perspectives on your compliance strategies.

The truth about why hospitals/medical facilities use locum tenens staffing: they’re great for coverage gaps, but there’s a lot more. Most facilities discover that locums become something akin to unofficial mentors for newbie healthcare pros. They share real-world tips and techniques that aren’t taught in medical/nursing/pharmacy school. They also can be terrific “test drive” professionals for new/innovative healthcare services you’re thinking of offering: use locums to staff the service to see if it’s a success with your patients before going full-bore with the idea. Have you used locums to try out new programs/services at your facility? What was the result? #LocumTenensStaffing #LocumTenensPros #LocumTenens

Two powerful ways locum tenens staffing can change your healthcare facility for the better: 1) Better disaster preparedness: hospitals/medical centers with locum experience are better at adapting to crises because they tend to be better at rapid onboarding and flexible scheduling systems. 2) Facilities that us locums tend to have better staff retention: permanent healthcare team members can more reliably schedule their time off/vacations/family time. This could make them more likely to stay with you. Locum tenens staff can make their work/life balance real, not just a promise they hear when you’re recruiting them.

There’s a problem when locum tenens staffing companies don’t have their credentialling of locum pros done when you need a locum. For one, you may not get a locum when you need him or her. But….it also hit your permanent team members’ morale: if a locum tenens staffing company can’t guarantee when a locum will start, your core team then has to bear the burden of uncertainty. (“Will the locum start Monday or Wednesday?”) They’re then left wondering when relief will arrive, making it even harder to them to plan their own lives/schedule. This can create ripples: burned-out regular staff might seek out employment elsewhere, turning what was supposed to be a temporary staffing challenge into a retention issue. Let’s talk about how our streamlined locum credentialing process ensures that a locum arrives to work when you need them. Every time.
