Unfortunately the entire state of Florida is under a hurricane watch in anticipation of Hurricane Irma’s likely landfall this weekend.

With HealthTrust Workforce Solutions’ corporate headquarters located in Sunrise, FL, our first priority is to ensure the safety of our employees and clinicians. However, we have also taken several measures in an effort to proactively address any potential disruptions in customer service as a result of the storm.

Thank you to the dozens of HealthTrust team members who have volunteered to travel to other regions of the country with the HealthTrust Disaster Response team amid this time of crisis. We recognize that their commitment to our organization and its clients, clinicians and employees will likely be taking them away from your homes, families and community during this time of crisis. We simply cannot thank theses special team members enough.  It is truly during these moments of uncertainly and crisis that the spirit of our people shines most brightly. 

We hope that all of our team members, clinicians, clients, business partners and each of their families throughout our community remain safe during the storm. 

We would like to congratulate our next corporate HealthTrust Hero, Billie Mosley! Billie is a senior program manager responsible for providing supplemental staff to HCA facilities in Texas and Mid-America.

As America pays tribute to its workforce on Labor Day, we wanted to thank our clinical and corporate team members for sharing their talents with us. In celebration of your hard work, please take some time today to reconnect with the people who matter to you. That’s the ultimate reason why we all work so hard.

We would like to thank the hundreds of nurses who have already been deployed to help the people in the South Texas region! We would also like to recognize all of the HealthTrust team members who have driven countless miles over the last few days to get these nurses to where they are needed most.

While there are many nurses already in place, the need for medical care is still great. We are in urgent need of critical care, NICU, and labor & delivery nurses.

As the new school year commences, our team members shared photos from their children's first day of school. Check out their back-to-school smiles!

Our corporate team members in South Florida saw an eclipse of about 80 percent of the sun on Monday, August 21. In addition to wearing protective eye wear, our staffers each received a chocolate Moon Pie to mark the occasion.

Matthew Rickmon, RN is our next clinical HealthTrust Hero! Matthew began his career with HealthTrust in the StaRN program as a learner and now works for HCA’s LewisGale Regional Health System in Virginia. Most recently, he earned the distinction of “Rookie RN of the Year” in HCA’s Southwest Virginia market.

“The skills practiced in StaRN were quite beneficial, many of which were hands-on experiences that were not encountered too often in school/clinicals,” Matthew says. “I believe StaRN is a major contributor to the rate that I have been able to pick up on skills, knowledge, and overall confidence in the real world of nursing.”

At HealthTrust Workforce Solutions, one of our core values is innovation, which at times means looking outside of workforce management veterans for fresh perspectives on how to guide our clinicians to successful careers.

Many of our new Associate Recruiters come to us from outside of the healthcare staffing industry but possess a deep passion for improving the lives of others. To give each of these new recruits a level starting ground, we’ve developed and implemented a robust six-week Associate Recruiter training program to lay the foundation for their own future success. While the training is intensive, it is not meant to be intimidating.

Don Sparrow is our next corporate HealthTrust Hero! Don started his career with our parent company, HCA, 30 years ago and takes great pride in improving patient care through his work in IT.

“It’s all about building the foundation for medical professionals to work within,” Don says. “I love my job.”
