Agostini is known for utilizing strategic and innovative approaches to fill critical staffing needs in a timely manner. We have grown a database of over 85,000 clinicians over the course of being in business for over 25 years. In addition, we have developed a first responder team of healthcare professionals that are available to work urgent assignments within 72 hours of notification .Our service plan to our hospitals is well known for its efficiency, timeliness and clinical excellence. We assign each of our hospitals a team consisting of a team leader who functions as the hospital coordinator, along with a minimum of two recruiters and an RN for clinical supervision.

Linda’s philosophy is that our job is at the bedside and not simply at the staffing office. Our responsibility to our hospitals is to provide the most qualified and competent staff to the patients in that hospital. We take this responsibility very seriously and evidence of this is contained in our strict screening and credentialing procedures and in our references from the hospitals that we have staffed for over 25 years.

Agostini is committed to assisting our client healthcare facilities in continuing to provide outstanding clinical excellence; we are available 24/7, including all holidays.

How can we work with you without a contract?
