Kelly Services, Inc. (NASDAQ: KELYA) (NASDAQ: KELYB) today
announced their recertification of the Gold Seal of Approval™ for
health care staffing services from The Joint Commission.
Kelly, a leading provider of workforce solutions to the
healthcare industry, underwent an unannounced, on-site review of
its compliance with national standards of addressing how staffing
firms determine the qualifications and competency of their staff,
how they place their staff, and how they monitor staff's
performance. "Health care organizations that contract with Kelly
can look to Joint Commission certification as an assurance that
Kelly demonstrates a commitment to providing and continuously
improving quality services," says Michele Sacco, M.S., executive
director, Health Care Staffing Services Certification, The Joint
Commission.
The ongoing shortages of nurses, pharmacists and other health
care professionals have forced health care organizations to
increasingly fill positions with temporary employees through
contractual arrangements with staffing firms. The Joint
Commission's certification program, launched in October 2004,
offers an independent, comprehensive evaluation of a staffing
firm's abilities to provide competent staffing services.
"Our continued certification reflects the high level of service
and attention to quality processes that frame our business
practices," says Grace Paranzino, chief clinical officer, Kelly
Services. "Our clients and employees can be confident that we
provide services that are focused on quality, safety and
performance improvement. We are proud to again receive the Joint
Commission's Gold Seal of Approval."
