WELCOME TO CIRRUS MEDICAL STAFFING

Burnout...Census...Staff Shortages...Education...Morale...Continuity of Patient Care... These, and other reasons, are why hospitals are turning to the use of traveling medical professionals. These professionals help hospital executives deal with the nursing shortage without depleting local pools, they enhance information sharing by offering new perspectives and contribute to staff morale by adding energy to departments that need the additional help. These professionals provide continuity of patient care by contracting long enough to learn your standards of healthcare delivery instead of showing up for a day or two. In addition, they provide hospital executives with the flexibility to staff toward census patterns without sacrificing valued full time employees. The scenario is ideal, but the cost? Well, studies show that the cost of using these traveling medical professionals are on target after factoring in full-time employee pay, overtime pay, retention costs, closed beds, insurance, sick time and vacation time. So if this type of clinical augmentation matches your business plan, you can't afford to use just any firm. You need a dependable provider with a reputation for performance, fair business practices and a solid understanding of your needs. That's why over 3,000 facilities across the United States contact Cirrus Medical Staffing for their traveling medical professional needs.
