Q. What is Nurse Staffing?

A. Staffing is the process of determining and providing the acceptable number of nursing personnel to produce a desired level of care to meet the patients' demand.

Q. What is the purpose of Care Indeed?

A. The purpose of our Healthcare staffing services is to provide each nursing category with an appropriate number of workers to perform the required nursing tasks. Too few or an improper mixture of nursing personnel will adversely affect the quality and quantity of work performed. Such situation can lead to high rates of absenteeism and staff turnover resulting in low morale and dissatisfaction.

Q. How does Care Indeed recruit their employees?

We have different approaches in selecting our nurses to give our clients maximum results including but not limited to:

  • Team Approach - Having more than one person interview the job applicant reduces individual bias
  • Structured Interview format for each specialization
  • Scenarios to Determine Decision-Making Ability
  • Completing pre-placement and nurse testing for all applicants

Q. How can we avoid nurse shortages?

A. Accurately predicting staffing needs is a valuable management skill because it enables the manager to avoid staffing crises. Managers should know the source of their nursing pool, the usual length of employment of new hires, peak staff resignation periods, times when patient census is highest and most importantly having a standby ready to supply a nurse staffing agency like Care Indeed anytime.

Q. Is Care Indeed currently accepting applications?
