Travel Therapy Staffing Firm Cirrus Allied Rolls Out New Program for Acute Care/Skilled Nursing Clients

ATLANTA, GA (03/24/2010)(readMedia)-- Cirrus Allied President Greg Allen announced today that the travel therapy staffing firm is bolstering its therapist recruitment services by offering a Therapist Staffing Pool Program for healthcare facilities.

"Our new Therapist Staffing Pool Program is designed to deliver continuity of patient care and consistency in the availability of PT's, OT's and SLP's within a specific healthcare system," said Allen. "For the healthcare system it offers piece of mind, knowing they have ample coverage of patient needs with a system specific trained pool of therapists. For the therapist, it presents a unique opportunity to be cross trained into new areas of specialization within the same healthcare system."

From the therapist's standpoint, Cirrus Allied's Therapist Staffing Pool Program offers Physical Therapists, Occupational Therapists and Speech Language Pathologists the autonomy to work between a number of facilities within the particular healthcare system and work on longer contracts than the traditional Travel Therapy model. Further, these therapists benefit greatly from the ability to gain hands-on experience in new areas of specialization that they are interested in mastering, creating a solid foundation of specialty experience for both experienced professionals and new graduates alike.

"Providing the ability for therapists to work between healthcare facilities within a chain creates opportunities to experience new specialties, various management styles and work with a myriad of other specialists, who are eager to share their clinical techniques," added Allen. "All in all, the therapists selected for these programs benefit by learning various procedures and proven techniques, which create the same desirable patient outcomes. Our clients benefit by securing long term system specific trained talent to serve their communities."
