Hard facts about contract workers in the health care field can help instill much-deserved confidence in their critical skills and services.

The article “Making the Case for Supplemental Nurses” in the January–February issue of Staffing Success magazine highlights the importance of industry research on the quality of supplemental nurses. This research has been spearheaded by Linda Aiken, Ph.D., RN, FAAN, of the University of Pennsylvania, a noted authority on the nursing work force in the U.S. and abroad.

Funding for this research is critical. Without it, the Aiken-led research team cannot continue its work in support of the staffing industry. To make a donation, go to americanstaffing.net/foundation.
