The Challenge

A Need for Children Psychiatric Professionals

This renowned hospital has always prioritized mental health care for children, allocating resources to the recruitment of pediatric psychiatric specialist. However, demand for these personnel had accelerated in recent years, particularly during the height of pandemic. Disruptions to the school year placed large burdens to parents and children. As a result, the leadership determined they would need the assistance of staffing provider to fill these critical positions.

The Solution

A Regional Partner with National Reach

The client contracted Planet Healthcare to assist them with their specific recruiting efforts. PHC’s regional presence, combined with their national network, made them a perfect partner for this engagement.

PHC’s team of well-connected, knowledgeable recruiters were able to meet this challenge, and quickly staff several behavioral health professionals on behalf of the client. To best serve the hospital’s patient population, PHC staffed both in and out-patient pediatric psychiatric professionals to improve overall quality and scope of the hospital’s mental health practice.
