Linda Julia is our Regional Vice President for the state of Florida. She started her career with HCA Healthcare at Plantation General Hospital, where she worked for 20 years first as a bedside nurse and then as a director.

“I’ve always been interested in healthcare,” Linda says about her decision to become a nurse. “When I was in high school, my mom took me and some friends to volunteer at the local VA hospital, and I just knew that I wanted to help people for a living." 

The Baltimore native would go on to join the administrative team at new healthcare staffing agency — an HCA subsidiary known as All About Staffing. This company would later become HealthTrust Workforce Solutions, an industry leader in both healthcare recruitment and MSP offerings. 

Our Dallas Office recently celebrated their Office of the Year achievement for  2019!  Together, the team not only helped more nurses find jobs through HealthTrust, but also helped our existing per diem nurses to find more shifts within their specialties at HCA Healthcare facilities throughout North Texas. 

Please join us in congratulating our Dallas Office for a job well done!

"I felt a wave of gratitude for everyone with whom I have ever shared my HWS journey," Eddie says about earning the distinction of HealthTrust Hero. "We do not work solo - we need everyone, and I was infinitely indebted to every team member I have the privilege with whom I work!"

On behalf of the entire HealthTrust Workforce Solutions family, we would like to wish you a joyful holiday season and a prosperous New Year.

Dozens of HealthTrust Workforce Solutions team members volunteered for the United Way of Broward County's Day of Caring today at the BB&T Center! This annual event supports the local community through packaging and distributing meals to families in need through Project Lifeline.

HealthTrust packaged 20,000 meals. In total the event packaged more than 300,000 meals for our community. 

Canned goods were also collected at the door and were donated to LifeNet4Families.

With the holiday season just around the corner we could not be more thankful and grateful for the holiday cheer all of the volunteers (especially our HWS team members!) will bring to families who do not know where they will get their next meal.
