Locum Tenens for Facilities

Why LocumTenens.com?

Employ coverage through us to maintain your patient base and supplement your existing staff. As staff supply tightens and workloads increase, coverage by a well-trained staff is crucial.

We also offer shift-based locum tenens options on a short- or long-term basis.

Additional benefits:

  • With the highest associate retention rate in the industry, you’ll build an efficient, lasting relationship with your recruiter.
  • To provide clients and clinicians with as many options as possible, LocumTenens.com operates a do-it-yourself job board where you can post jobs at no charge. Our extensive database allows you to choose from thousands of active clinicians and CRNAs.
  • We can create unique models to fit your facility’s needs. Need 1.5 clinicians at your facility? We’ll use a combination of telemedicine and on-site clinicians to cover your needs. Let us work with you to come up with a flexible plan that meets your ever-changing needs.
  • LocumTenens.com works with clients to complete an on-boarding package for the providers to make the orientation process run as smoothly as possible, so the clinician is ready to see patients sooner.
  • Using NCQA standards, we verify each candidate’s education, training, experience and medical licensure, including background checks from the AMA and the Federation of State Medical Boards.
  • We provide a system for collecting and reporting metrics and feedback for our clients after the clinician has completed an assignment for you.
