Locum Tenens Staffing—the Staff Care Way
The definition of locum tenens, roughly translated from Latin, means “to hold a place.” When a healthcare employer faces temporary staffing shortages due to vacancies, illness, or other causes, they hire locum tenens physicians and other part-time clinicians to fill those vacancies and maintain patient care quality.
Staff Care works with only the best locum tenens talent to fill a variety of staffing positions, including specialty physicians, dentists, CRNAs, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants. We partner with every type of healthcare facility, regardless of size and location, to fill their staffing gaps. Some healthcare organizations depend on these temporary employees while they conduct a permanent search, while others may use locum tenens providers to test the need for a new staff position or specialist.
Staff Care physicians worked 8,640 days last year in NC. With an average of 20 patients per day, Staff Care physicians saw roughly 172,800 patients in 2017.
