A new, travel-based staffing solution from Kelly Healthcare
Resources is helping to address the nationwide shortage of
healthcare professionals while offering flexibility for both
employers and employees in the delivery of high-quality patient
care. Kelly Healthcare Resources is a highly specialized business
unit of Kelly Services, Inc. (NASDAQ: KELYA) (NASDAQ: KELYB), a
world leader in workforce management services and human resources
solutions.
TravelPath allows hospitals and other institutions to control
costs and manage fluctuating staffing needs, while providing
nurses, physical therapists and other allied healthcare
professionals with flexible, short-term travel-based assignments
and the chance to explore new geographies or career
opportunities.
"TravelPath represents the best of both worlds -- both for the
institution and the temporary employee," said Connie Gray, vice
president and business unit leader of Kelly Healthcare
Resources.
"Healthcare facilities appreciate the arrangement because it
allows them to vary the size of their staff as their patient
population fluctuates, as it does in Arizona and Florida, where
some people reside only in the winter months," Gray added.
"Meanwhile, healthcare professionals have the opportunity to work
at some of the nation's most prestigious institutions. This type of
employment is increasingly popular among both new and experienced
professionals who may want to try out different cities before
settling down or retiring."
Through TravelPath, hospitals, outpatient clinics, insurance
companies, pharmaceutical companies and other healthcare-related
employers have access to Kelly Healthcare Resources' nationwide
network of credentialed, licensed professionals. Available talent
includes general and specialty nurses, pharmacists, therapists and
technicians.
The temporary, travel-based assignments are flexible, depending
on the employer's needs, but most commonly are 13 weeks long.
TravelPath offers flexible compensation packages and benefits for
healthcare professionals, including competitive hourly wages; free
private housing or a generous housing allowance; travel allowance;
relocation support; health, dental and 401(k) options; and
continuing education opportunities. For more information, visit:
