As you can tell from the title, this post will be somewhat biased. We’ll share the numerous reasons you need a medical staffing agency like us to help staff your medical practice in Atlanta.
But we promise this entire post isn’t just us hyping up our services. We’ll also explore why you might not want to work with a medical staffing agency to fill your open positions.
First, What is a Medical Staffing Agency?
A medical staffing agency connects medical practices with skilled staff for their open positions. This includes clinical staff like RNs and urologists, as well as non-clinical staff like billings and medical administrative staff.
At RG Staffing, we manage the entire hiring process, from finding and interviewing top candidates to conducting background checks. Whether it’s filling short-term positions, handling seasonal surges, or managing long-term staffing needs, we make medical staff recruitment easier and smoother.
Benefits of Using a Medical Staffing Agency
Working with a medical staffing agency offers more than just convenience. Here are several reasons why working with an agency like RG Staffing can be a game-changer for your medical practice:
1. Save time and resources
Recruiting can take up valuable time that could be spent focusing on patients. A medical staffing agency takes on the entire hiring process, from initial screening to final interviews, freeing up your schedule.
Plus, we conduct background checks and reference validations to streamline the onboarding process so new hires can get to work faster.
2. Access to a larger talent pool
Staffing agencies have an extensive network of healthcare professionals. This gives you access to highly qualified candidates, including those not actively job hunting, which you might not find through regular job postings.
3. Saves Costs
Hiring mistakes can be expensive. With a staffing agency, you can reduce turnover costs, as we vet candidates thoroughly to minimize the risk of wrong hires. Also, you reduce the financial strain of keeping roles vacant for too long, such as overtime for overworked staff and loss of revenue due to inadequate staffing.
4. Industry expertise
Medical staffing agencies specialize in healthcare recruitment. This means we understand the specific skills and qualifications required for each role. We’re also familiar with industry standards and can spot red flags, so only the best is recruited for your medical practice.
5. Flexible hiring options
Whether you need temporary help during a busy season or a long-term hire, staffing agencies offer flexible options to meet your needs. We can help you bring in short-term support or find a permanent medical staff quickly.
Why A Medical Staffing Agency May Not Be For You
While working with us has undeniable advantages, let’s explore reasons you might not want to work with a medical staffing agency.
● Upfront costs
Agencies charge a fee for their services, which may seem like an extra cost. However, this upfront cost is an investment that pays off as it helps speed up the hiring process, reduces overtime for overworked staff, and avoids costly hiring mistakes.
● Less control over hiring
Handing over the hiring process can feel like giving up some control. But it also means offloading the time-consuming parts of recruitment.
You’ll still have the final say on who joins your medical practice while we handle the legwork. This ensures you hire top talents thoroughly vetted and well-suited for your needs.
The bottom line? Although these potential drawbacks are valid, they are outweighed by the benefits of partnering with a medical staffing agency.
