Portland New Office Opening

PARK CITY, UT (August 2009) – Supplemental Health Care, a workforce solutions company that places health care professionals on contract assignments at hospitals and health care facilities across the United States, is pleased to add Portland, Oregon, to its network of Allied staffing divisions.

"We're excited to bring our expertise and professional vision to Portland," said Keiley Giboney, area manager west allied. "Our combination of localized services and extensive national resources set us apart from the competition and will provide the Portland area with comprehensive and personalized staffing solutions.

Previously, Supplemental Health Care had been serving the Portland area through their Seattle team, but the addition of the Portland office will allow Supplemental Health Care to more efficiently meet the area's need. Whether those needs are outpatient, school, acute care, long-term care, skilled nursing, government, or correctional, Supplemental Health Care can assist by providing PTs, OTs, SLPs and assistants for full-time, part-time, PRN or contract positions.

"Our Portland office is part of the community," said Joshua Herring, Portland recruiting manager. "We know our friends, neighbors and family are the very patients we will be serving. We visit the facilities we serve, get to know the staff, learn about the challenges at hand and understand the important work being done there. We recognize the role we play in patient care and know that is our job to help the facility provide superior patient outcomes by providing skilled, experienced therapists that are ready to hit the ground running. As experts in the marketplace, our team works to fill clients' per diem and contract needs with the right therapists every time."

Portland is just one of several offices Supplemental Health Care has opened this year including Buffalo, NY, Columbus, OH, Las Vegas, NV, Louisville, KY, San Antonio, TX and Tulsa, OK.
