The Challenge
A surgery center was in the process of launching a new orthopedic program, attracting top-tier surgeons to expand its specialized services. However, a major roadblock threatened the program’s success:
- Insufficient Staff for OR Suites – The center did not have enough OR personnel to run multiple surgical suites simultaneously, limiting case volume and efficiency.
- Inconsistent Staffing Needs – The center only required additional coverage two days a week, making traditional full-time hiring impractical and costly.
- Surgeon Expectations – To recruit and retain high-caliber surgeons, the center needed to ensure a seamless and well-staffed OR environment.
Finding a flexible, reliable staffing solution was critical to delivering high-quality surgical care without overextending resources.
