Temporary or Flexible Staffing
ESSENCIA HEALTHCARE, INC. is one of the highly reputable and conscientious medical staffing firms in the Midwest. We maintain one of the largest database of healthcare staffing professionals in Chicago area and the suburbs. Our nurses undergo extensive screening and constantly reevaluate their competencies and skill prior to deployment . We affirm our creed on quality thus reflecting on client facility productivity and patient outcomes. Regardless of what type of assignments our client facilities require , either long or short term contract, short notice or last minute nurse job orders, you'll find professional, courteous and timely response from our staffing coordinators.
If you require nursing or care staff on a short term basis then our "Flexible Staffing" service will be ideal. This is designed for those organisations that require temporary nursing and care staff enabling your business to adjust more easily and quickly to workload fluctuations such as employee absences due to illness, holidays, maternity, sudden departure, unexpected or temporary demands and seasonal or peak periods. It can save you time and money as the cost of hiring temp workers is often cheaper than the cost of hiring permanent employees with benefits.
It enables you to evaluate a worker without commitment. Based on your evaluation or preferences, you can employ a temp for a designated short term or, if desired, offer a full-time position to a worker who suits your business. Hiring a temp can also be a good way to continue getting work done without compromising patient care while you search for the perfect permanent candidate for a particular vacancy.
With the popularity and staying power of flexible work arrangements, employers need to stay current with the needs of today’s work force. Temporary work is just one of the ways that your organisation can offer flexibility and at the same time better meet your own healthcare requirements.
Today, temporary workers increasingly include highly skilled individuals with a wide range of healthcare backgrounds and work experience. These individuals can tackle critical one-time healthcare needs that are limited in time and scope.
Our ESSENCIA Flexible Staffing service is based on the central objective of providing appropriately trained workers in a timely and cost effective manner, and of a quality consistent with a client's own staff. It is based on the three principles of quality, service and value. The benefits include immediate savings on use of temporary staffing, improved operational efficiencies, greater control in terms of authorization and expenditure, savings in management time and resources.
Temp to Permanent
If your strategy is "try before you buy" when it comes to hiring new employees, our "Temp-To-Perm" service gives you time to see how our ESSENCIA candidates are doing in their position and how they interact with your patients and staff before offering them a permanent position.
Industry benchmarks have risen significantly over the past eighteen months and taking on a new employee through a Temp-To-Perm placement will allow you to observe their skill-set/cultural fit and ensure this is in line with what you are looking for. This will not only give you the opportunity to check out their abilities in a real-world trial but also how they get on with your existing team.
This affords you the chance to see what our employees have to offer, evaluate their knowledge and performance, see if their skill set is a true match for the open position, how they fit in with your company and create a successful partnership. The most important outcome of Temp-To-Perm hiring is that it is low risk, ensuring that both parties don’t jump into anything head first and commit to a relationship they are not really happy in. Rather than risking the chance of ‘choosing the best of a bad bunch’ why not try ESSENCIA's Temp-To-Perm service.
Direct Placement/ "Outsourcing"
If you are looking to fill a full time , temp or PRN vacancy then our "Direct Placement" or "Outsourcing service will deliver a wide range of suitably and highly qualified candidates from our ESSENCIA Healthcare pool of nurses for your final interview and employ.
We apply the same rigorous screening processes in our direct hire placement services as we do in our temporary staffing service. We are not just matching healthcare skills, we're matching people to a career.
We are aware that you want to hire a candidate who has the right skills for the job, and we know how important it is to find employees you can count on, staff who you trust will be there for the long haul. That’s why Essencia carefully screen each healthcare candidate to weed out the short-term job seekers from the long-term career seekers.
One of the biggest concerns you might consider when researching staffing companies to find a Direct Hire or Outsourced candidate is whether or not their hiring procedures will be a match for the criteria you need the candidate to meet. When you come to us with a direct hire placement position, you’ll have the opportunity to tell us the specific metrics and processes you use to find the right candidate for your hard to fill positions. If your organization uses specific tools to gauge a prospective employee’s skills, share them with us and we’ll include those hiring processes in our search. Now each candidate presented to you will be selected with the same care as if you had selected the candidate yourself.
We define "Outsourcing" within the highest standards of Human Resource recruitment and hiring process. Moreover , Outsourcing is a process where most hospitals, nursing facilities, assisted liviing communities and even competitor nurse staffing agencies needs a shortage of staff nurses to be filled especially during peak seasons such as holidays , high census and implementation of new programs.
