Managing a medical facility or senior care community is difficult. Supplemental health care staffing can make it a little easier. If you’re curious about how supplemental healthcare staffing works, this is the article for you.
What Is Supplemental Healthcare Staffing?
Let’s start with the basics. Supplemental healthcare staffing is when a third-party healthcare agency provides caregivers to a medical facility on a temporary or rolling contract basis. Supplemental healthcare staffing is like going to a temp agency that specializes in healthcare workers.
Do Medical Facilities Only Use Supplemental Healthcare Staffing When They Are Understaffed?
No. Supplemental healthcare staffing is most needed when a medical facility is experiencing a staffing shortage, but there are other benefits, too.

What Are Some Of The Other Benefits Of Supplemental Healthcare Staffing?
With supplemental healthcare staffing you can eliminate overhead. You don’t have to worry about who you have employed at all times.
